Konsthantverk i Sverige, del 1
- 2015
-
Editorial collection (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Konsthantverk i Sverige del 1 samlar 18 författare. Boken kommer ur ett gemensamt intresse att förändra och vidga en konventionell historieskrivning om konsthantverk, bortom traditionella materialuppdelningar och nationella förståelser. Det vi skriver om kan ha kallats slöjd, konst, design, pyssel, konsthantverk, formgivning, brukskonst, hantverk och hemslöjd. Historia betraktas här som något pågående, något som vi gör. Det är ingen neutral aktivitet utan den är platsspecifik. I Konsthantverk i Sverige del 1 skildrar författarna från sina perspektiv en berättelse om materialitet och görande i Sverige från sent 1800-tal och fram till i dag. Boken skall inte ses som Historien med stort h utan snarare som de första stegen i en diskussion om historia, materialitet och görande.Med texter av Zandra Ahl, Christian Björk, Otto von Busch, Päivi Ernkvist, Kakan Hermansson, Elina Holmgren, Charlotte Hyltén-Cavallius, Frida Hållander, Love Jönsson, Mahmoud Keshavarz, Gunilla Lundahl, Helena Mattsson, Anneli Palmsköld, Johanna Rosenqvist, Miro Sazdic, Rosa Taikon, Jorunn Veiteberg, Christina Zetterlund

Crafting Cultural Heritage
- 2016
-
Editorial collection (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The making of artefacts is a core activity in society, the result of which contributes to the building up of our physical surroundings and material culture. Throughout history, craft skills have been highly appreciated and have often been seen as crucial component of a capable human. Despite this, the knowledge base that constitutes the actual making is often overlooked in research. What can we learn about things by learning about their making? How do different craft skills offer an understanding of its historical use? How can theoretical and methodological approaches be developed concerning the actual making? How can we study and understand craft as cultural heritage? This book contains a selecion of papers from the session Crafting Cultural Heritage at the Assosiation of Critical Heritage studies inaugural conference Re/theorising Heritage 2012 in Gothenburg. The contributors are Anneli Palmsköld; Thomas Laurien; Eleonora Lupo and Elena Giunta; Gunnar Almevik and Nicola Donovan. Their common interest are theories and methods of crafting that could benefit heritage studies approach to making.

Lerbaserad erfarenhet och språklighet

Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- During the course of the twentieth century, a doubt emerged – first within visual arts, and later also within crafts – where the relevance of the traditional way of making art was addressed, as were thoughts on what was termed ‘empty shape’. The notion that shape in itself was no longer artistically valid is closely linked to notions of materiality as hindrance, and immateriality as freedom – all of which have had a major influence on contemporary visual arts and crafts, in general, and, more specifically, on what I term ‘theory-practice’ within the field of crafts. During the past few decades, increasing proof of this influence on the field of crafts as a whole has also been experienced. As a ceramist expressing myself through clay, form has never been empty, and clay never a hindrance, and my dissertation is an attempt to put materiality as hindrance, and immateriality as freedom, in context, as well as to reflect upon questions related to their emergence and what impact they have within the field of crafts. My point of departure here is my own experience as an artist and ceramist, where inquiring and exploring takes places through practical knowledge. I argue that there is no such thing as immateriality in art and that all artistic expression requires bodily-situated craft skill of some kind in order to be materialised and communicated, as well as to take place in the world. I also argue that art should be seen as what I term ‘language-practice’. Through this practice I craft the concept of ‘clay-based language-ness’ and ‘language- like-ness’ in order to come as close as possible to describing, in words, the kind of communication I wish to create as a ceramist, as well as what art-making (‘art-crafting’) constitutes when conceptual artists create their art. Regarding crafts as a language-practice, however, conflicts with the theory that is setting the tone as well as leading the field of crafts today. I therefore wish, and propose, to find a way out of this conflict-ridden situation. As part of this endeavour, I present the text-based part of the dissertation and the clay-based part of the dissertation – side by side.

Nuestras Madres : Forming Political Subjects en la mesa
- 2017
-
In: Architecture and Culture. - : Routledge. - 2050-7828 .- 2050-7836. ; 5:3, s. 53-56
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- NUESTRAS MADRES is an artwork by the art collective IDA performed at the AHRA Architecture and Feminisms Conference (2016), which consisted of a collective ritual and a poetry reading. The ritual created a safe space where a group of participants sat around a table taking turns in sharing their stories about their mothers while embroidering their mothers’ names on a single tablecloth. These were synthesized into a poem and presented the following day. IDA investigates issues in private and public space connected to knowledge production and gender normativity. Even though the role of mothers and their knowledge is usually connected to the private sphere, the knowledge of our mothers and their mothers shared en la mesa - over the table - is important in the construction of political subjects. How has this knowledge helped us survive in society as women, queer, indigenous, working class, Muslim, immigrant - as human beings?
