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 Tín-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.
