Handmade Nation
A Documentary by Faythe Levine
 
Pauseability is proud to present the Singapore premiere of Handmade Nation.
Handmade Nation documents the new wave of art, craft and design that is capturing the attention of America. It is the feature film debut of director, author, artist and curator Faythe Levine.  Levine travelled to 15 cities and covered more than 19,000 miles to interview artists, crafters, makers, curators and community members.
Today’s craft world has emerged as a synthesis of historical technique, punk culture, and the DIY ethos, also influenced by traditional handiwork, modern aesthetics, politics, feminism and art.
Singapore also has a crafting culture that is still in its infancy. This documentary would make an interesting comparison for the general public while also be an inspiration for the aspiring local crafters.
 
Keep a date with us on 29 May 2010 (Saturday) at The Arts House.
