Co-Crafting Democracy: Fiber Arts and Activism

to

The exhibition Crafting Democracy: Fiber Arts and Activism debuted in Rochester, New York – home to Susan B. Anthony and Frederick Douglass – along with an eponymous catalogue (RIT Press, 2019). Works by the 30 artists explored how handwork probes the vulnerabilities of citizenship status, while also working toward positive social change. Over the following two years, the exhibit traveled to four additional venues in the Northeast U.S., realizing opportunities for community, conversation, and critique.

Now, the exhibition is back in an entirely new form – a “redux” that seeks to co-craft democracy. Curators Juilee Decker and Hinda Mandell, in reviving their show concept, are expanding the notion of democracy to the exhibition form itself: all work that is submitted to the show will be accepted and displayed.*

The exhibition is being developed in collaboration and with the support of RIT’s Division of Diversity and Inclusion. Students from RIT’s museum studies program will be involved in the creation and installation of the exhibit. For more information, please contact Dr. Decker, jdgsh@rit.edu.
