Explora cómo artistas han utilizado materiales, métodos y estrategias en prácticas artesanales para desafiar estructuras de poder que tradicionalmente determinan el valor artístico y para también reclamar los lenguajes visuales que normalmente se han codificado como femeninos, domésticos o vernáculos. Estudiaremos como artistas amplían técnicas con historias ancestrales, como el tejido, la costura o la cerámica, mientras que otros experimentan con textiles, hilo, arcilla, abalorios y vidrio, entre otros medios. Discutiremos obras de artistas como Ruth Asawa, Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Simone Leigh, y Pepón Osorio.

Explore how artists have used the materials, methods, and strategies of craft to challenge the power structures that determine artistic value and reclaim visual languages that have typically been coded as feminine, domestic, or vernacular. Some expand techniques with long histories, such as weaving, sewing, or pottery, while others experiment with textiles, thread, clay, beads, and glass, among other mediums. Featured artists include Ruth Asawa, Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Simone Leigh, and Pepón Osorio.
