Call for papers - The Carbon Issue

Craft Australia is calling for papers for its next issue of craft + design enquiry. Issue #3 is called The Carbon issue - Sustainability in craft and design.

This issue welcomes academic papers documenting research that contributes to an understanding of sustainability as a context for craft and design. This understanding ranges from the practical to the symbolic.

    Papers can include:
  • A review historical movements such as the Arts & Crafts movement or Bauhaus
  • A reflection on current craft and design projects
  • An engagement with contemporary sustainability discourse
  • A speculation on the future of craft and design in a world more than two degrees warmer than today
  • A critical examination of the relationship between sustainability and the aesthetic dimension

Papers due by 30 June 2010.
