Australian silversmith Robert Foster (Raising the Bar) is interested in energy and movement.
IC:Innovative Craft was established in 2005 to explore different ways of celebrating excellence and imagination in craft, in Scotland and internationally.
The founding directors (Roanne Dods, Former Director, Jerwood Charitable Foundation; Amanda Game, Former Director, Crafts The Scottish Gallery; Elizabeth Goring, former Principal Curator, National Museums Scotland) are using their considerable collective experience to cast new critical light on the vital role of the maker in the 21st century.
We are working to make connections between all those individuals and organisations already active in innovative ways in the field. Making creative use of these connections will allow us to reach out to new audiences through world-class exhibitions and events, building bridges between craft and wider culture.
IC:Innovative Craft has received core funding from the Scottish Arts Council and project funding from the Jerwood Charitable Foundation to pursue our aims.
