Indian Ocean Craft Trennal : FUTURING CRAFT 24
The Indian Ocean Craft Triennial issued a call for submissions to the international conference Futuring Craft 24
Futuring Craft 24 welcomes submissions from anywhere in the world – in the form of either full papers or practice-led research and stories, with intention to present in-person or online.
The IOTA conference provides opportunities to expand knowledge on topics that reflect the diversity of approaches to craft making and consumption. We encourage proposals from individuals in a variety of creative fields; theorists, academics, craft practitioners, artists, designers, makers, curators, campaigners, and activists.
Futuring Craft 24 will provide a platform for vigorous debate on the challenges confronting the craft sectors in the Indian Ocean region and beyond, and the opportunities arising, raising major questions:
- What is the future of craft practice in the Indian Ocean Region?
- How does the evolution of the handmade underpin micro and macro economies?
- What role do crafts and makers play in socio-political, cultural and environmental healing?
- How can communities challenge the craft paradigm?
- Technology and the digital age, a game changer?
