Liz Collins
This groundbreaking volume positions Liz Collins as a singular figure who not only synthesises fine art, craft and fashion and textile design, but also advocates fiercely for queer and feminist politics.
Collins is a queer feminist artist known for her radical deployment of fibre, her activism around labour and gender politics, and her exploration of the borderlands between art, design and craft. Motherlode assembles her work from the late 1990s to the present day, introducing needlework, drawings and including documentation and large-scale sculpture. Contributors survey her life and career, address her unique relationship to craft and labour, and celebrate vital resonances in her work.
