MAKE:CRAFT Exhibit Closing
Come explore MAKE: CRAFT at the Otis College of Art and Design's Ben Maltz Gallery. The exhibition is a survey of California artists who combine hand-making and building techniques to create, engineer, and hack unique, mostly functional devices, objects, machines and accessories. With these objects, the artists make social or political statements, creating new markets for individually styled products. They also create inventive ways to experience the tactile world.
MAKE: CRAFT is organized by the OTIS Ben Maltz Gallery and guest Curator Patricia Watts, the West Coast curator for ecoartspace who works with artists who address the human/nature interface. Watts feels that current trends in the DIY (Do-It-Yourself) movement of making and crafting have empowered contemporary artists and designers to create more socially relevant work that supports sustainable communities.
This exhibition started October 2 and closes Saturday, December 4.
