Dans un gros article d'intervention historiographique, Liliane Hilaire-Pérez et Catherine Lanoë reviennent sur la place des artisans et leur rôle dans les transformations techniques de l'époque des Lumières. En réévaluant leurs rapports au monde savant, elles mettent en avant trois thèmes qui émergent des études récentes : la captation des savoirs artisanaux par les mondes savants ; les relations de pouvoir qui sous-tendent la codification des pratiques artisanales ; et les ressorts cognitifs du rapport à la matière, au geste et à l’outillage.

We're in the news again! Read about how Artisans Built a Co-op Alternative to Etsy
One year ago, after joining a strike against Etsy, these artists created their own cooperative online platform for artisans – currently in beta.

Hello les #artisans je propose de plus en plus de #stages de #forge.
J'ai envie de m'inscrire à #wecandoo un organisme qui centralise des stages d'artisanat.
Est-ce que vous avez une expérience avec eux? De ce que j'ai pu lire et entendre ça à l'air pas mal.
Mais vos retours d'expériences sont les bienvenus.
Hey y'all, in a break from the doom and gloom that is this freaking timeline, as lots of folks are cancelling #prime and looking for gifts for holiday season, may I direct you towards the Artisans Cooperative? Founded as a response to Etsy becoming a dropship paradise, AC (quote) "is crafting a better online handmade marketplace, run as a values-aligned, member-owned cooperative." (I am not affiliated.)
There's some really groovy stuff!
New handmade set added today as a part of my Fantasy Worlds collection, I called it Starry Garden, inspired by the idea of a magical purple garden with a purple starry sky.
It's now available on my website:

Artisans in the Brazilian Cerrado create crafts from capim dourado, Portuguese for “golden grass” that look like they’re spun out of a fairy tale. Despite its gilded look, capim dourado is neither gold nor grass. It’s actually the long stems of a small desert flower.

@bengesko Folks should go check out Artisans Cooperative! It was born out of the #EtsyStrike. It's a democratic, member-owned cooperative, and they fully allow adult products (including sex toys) on their website. It's had a really good start IMO, and I'm hoping to see it grow even further.

Throughout their time at the workshop, millions of #FabricScraps have gotten another chance at a new life as parts of #artworks, tote bags, shirts & more. These products were created by #VụnArt’s nearly 40 #artisans, all living with different forms of #disabilities. The workers come from all walks of life, but, under the roof of Vụn Art, have come together to make a living from their own labor & creativity, like pieces of a tapestry existing to make life more enjoyable.

They're more expensive than I initially thought they'd end up being. I realize most of my plushies are going to be luxury purchases for most people, but I want to avoid undervaluing my work. Not just for my own sake, but so as not to contribute to a larger undervaluing of #crocheted and #handmade things in general. There's a pricing breakdown in the description of the listing, which lays out how what I'm getting for my work is minimum wage (in Germany, where I live) for four and a half hour's work — not including the time it took to test the #plushies for safety requirements, to do the math on expenses, and to write up the listing itself. I don't keep track of that time.
Once I have all the current inventory listed, I really would like to design some simpler plushies so I can sell to ppl who can't afford the ones I've designed so far.
This is one of two pieces I created for the DIY Show "Uncommon Threads" many years ago. I demonstrated the steps for piecing the 3d roses for the topiary. That was a fun experience!
Available on my Etsy shop. Thank you for boosting artists!
