| Summary: | "This groundbreaking volume positions Liz Collins as a singular figure who not only synthesizes fine art, craft, and fashion and textile design, but also fiercely advocates for queer and feminist politics. This book complements the first major survey of the artist's work in an American museum. Collins is a queer feminist artist known for her radical deployment of fiber, her activism around labor and gender politics, and her exploration of the borderlands between art, design, and craft. Motherlode assembles her work from the late 1990s to now, presenting needlework, drawings, documentation, and large-scale sculpture. Contributors survey her life and career, address her unique relationship to craft and labor, and celebrate vital resonances in her work."--Publisher. |
