{"product_id":"9781350359352","title":"Queer Crafts : Material Practices and the Making of Identity by Daniel Fountain","description":"Through a focused analysis of work made from textiles, ceramics, wood, paper, metal, and glass, this book explores how contemporary artists, designers, and practitioners identifying as LGBTQ+ use a range of craft materials and processes to explore their identity and queerness.    Queer Crafts provides a nuanced and timely study of the dynamic intersection of queerness and craft, examining a wide range of media - textiles, ceramics, wood, paper, metal, and glass. Daniel Fountain demonstrates how LGBTQ+ practitioners - including LJ Roberts, Paul Yore, Rose Schmits, Nicki Green, Hansel Tai, Affect Metals, Troy Montes-Michie, Antonius T?n-Bui, Raul De Lara, Nifemi Ogunro, Tim Tate, and Hamad Butt - use these materials as powerful vehicles for self-expression, community building, and social critique. Reframing craft through a queer and trans theoretical lens, the book analyzes how these practitioners reclaim histories, rewrite narratives, disrupt hierarchies, and craft their own worlds. A significant contribution to the field, Queer Crafts is an invaluable resource for scholars and practitioners across a range of disciplines.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368685089141,"sku":"9781350359352","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781350359352.jpg?v=1763550451","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781350359352","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
