— both artists and craftspeople — founded in 2018. Like “Small Acts,” Manley and Quick’s biannual zine is dedicated to celebrating craft and craftspeople.
“It is being able to transform raw material, through skill and labor, into something extraordinary. That is how we are thinking about craft,” Quick said. “It is not necessarily tied to a traditional material. It is about a really skilled practice and a deep engagement with making something.” There is Jeffrey Clancy’s “Suck It ,” which features a cluster of pacifiers beautifully crafted from fabricated silver and cast lead. Maybe Clancy is skewering the parenting industrial complex, where nothing is too good for your precious bundle of joy. Or maybe he is looking at income inequality, where some children live in silver-spoon communities, while others are getting lead-filled water in their sippy cups.
And in “Real Pearl Necklace,” Lena Echelle pierces the gilded bubble of fashion and luxury goods by making a visually stunning necklace of “pearls” made from goat dung and layers of nail polish.There are works tackling the increase in anti-abortion legislation in the U.S., the effect of colonization, the challenge of dismantling patriarchal power structures and the web of human-rights issues surrounding immigration.
