This open access book explores the experience of working as a
craftsperson or designer maker in the contemporary creative
economy. The authors utilise evidence from the only major empirical
study to explore the skills required and the challenges facing
contemporary makers in an increasingly crowded marketplace. Drawing
upon 180 interviews with peak organisations, established and
emerging makers, and four years of fieldwork across Australia, this
book offers a unique insight into the motivations informing those
who seek to make an income from their craft or designer maker
practice, as well as the challenges and opportunities facing them
as they do so at this time of renewed interest internationally in
the artisanal and handmade. Offering a rich and deep collection of
real-life experiences, this book is aimed both at an academic and
practitioner audience.
