Project Name: Making and Learning – sustainable craft education
Description: I want to use the concept of ‘transnational’ curation to explain the ‘trans-regional’ platform for craft education. At the same time, I want to build a method of working on craft education projects through the development of friendship and care. As a curator, how can I incorporate friendship and care into my projects and craft course practice? Also, through my background knowledge of crafts in the Edinburgh area, I recently came across the magazine ‘craft’ article which represents my current interests. Also, through my background knowledge of crafts in the Edinburgh area, I recently read an article in the magazine ‘craft’ that represented my current interest.

Working through interdisciplinary collaboration is a method that has allowed me to develop ideas and projects.
