OpenCampus Tea-time Talk: Performing Craftivism – Resistant Bodies in Protest Spaces

UNIVERSITY OF HULL, Cottingham Road, Hull, HU6 74X

11 Apr 2018

Family Friendly

Led by guest speaker Dr Amy Skinner, Lecturer in Drama and Theatre Practice, School of Arts (Drama), University of Hull, Founder and co-ordinator.

Dr Skinner’s paper will position the craftivist movement as a starting point for framing interactions between performers and spectators within the context of a performance event.

Focusing on the act of crafting, rather than on the crafted product, it theorises crafting or hand-making as essentially theatrical acts – experiences of embodied storytelling carried out by the maker through the agency of an object.
