There are many ways to perceive and interpret contemporary craft
objects - for instance, as works of representational art in
materials like ceramics, glass, textile, metal or wood, or as
functional, handmade everyday objects. In this publication, the
editors have invited different voices in craft theory to
investigate the perception of contemporary craft as a particular
discourse and aesthetic vocabulary. According to the editors,
contemporary crafts can benefit from being discussed as
representations of reality that do not rely on the concept of
autonomy. As such, neither do they rely on the conventional dualism
between aesthetic objects and everyday things. The authors
investigate the possibility to perceive craft objects from
perspectives that relate to the aesthetic tradition of materialism.
