Black Craftspeople Digital Archive
Follow the QR code (or link) to submit your digital contributions related to the lives and legacies of Black craftspeople across the diaspora. We accept photographs, images, weblinks, and written information on Black craftspeople; these will be fully attributed to the contributor.
Contextualization
The Black Craftspeople Digital Archive departs from traditional art history object-study methods by centering on the lives and experiences of Black craftspeople. Among the questions we ask of objects are: How is craft knowledge produced by Black life? How does the object currently speak to the craftsperson’s legacy? What were the craftsperson’s experiences? This postcard was conceived by the BCDA in response to an invitation by the MA in Critical Craft Studies’ cohort of ’21. For more on the BCDA’s object-study methods, please visit the website.
