Craft Thinking : A relational approach to making and design

Brinck, Ingar LU orcid (2023) In Routledge Advances in Art and Visual Studies
Abstract
The chapter concerns craft thinking as it occurs within the craft making process when the maker is engaged in manipulating the material using the hands and body. The aim is to explain how nonverbal craft thinking enables operating critically and coping with problems such as uncertainty, insufficient information, and insufficient quality within the craft making process. Approaching craft thinking within the framework of embodied and embedded cognition, I identify three cases of nonverbal craft thinking that recur in craft practice and examine them one by one, focusing on how each fullfils its function and what skills and cognitive processes they rely on.
