About this event
We are delighted to be joined by artist Harriet Morley, curator Catherine Ince and Associate Professor in History of Art, Marta Ajmar for an afternoon of discussion and debate around craft, design and the role of the workshop.
This event marks the conclusion of artist Harriet Morley’s Handicrafts Residency at Loughborough University. Her residency has led to the development of a new work, Hard Wear, Soft Wear. This work reflects Morley’s ongoing interest in the connections between the material, the communal and the pedagogical. What is the relationship between an institution, its learning environments, its curricular focus, its teaching methods and its communities? What knowledges persist in the material ephemera of learning? And, in particular, what comes into focus when these relationships are considered through a feminist lens that centres accessibility, collectivity and care? These questions are inherent within the work and will be further explored by Harriet Morley, Catherine Ince and Dr Marta Ajmar. The discussion will be chaired by Dr David Bell, Curator of Loughborough University’s Arts Collection.
