The revival of craft today reflects society’s desire for authenticity and tactility, complementing our modern mode of living. Yet craft also embodies our urgent need to affirm the power of humans over machines and artificial intelligence. Hence, the idea of an activist counterculture emerges, where the handcrafted can become a revolutionary movement. Curated by Lidewij Edelkoort and designed by Mariola Lopez Mariño, ‘Proud South Craft’ is the second volume in a series celebrating the creative forces of the new Global South. Through the expressive lens of contemporary craft, embraced as a transformative tool, it highlights textiles, ceramics, woodwork, basketry, stonework, and more.
