The Cost of Craft: Art, Labor and Livelihood
Operating at the intersection of ceramics, design, and business, Not Work Related is a contemporary ceramics studio started in 2017 by architect turned ceramist, Sarah Hussaini. The studio is committed to both precision craftsmanship and financial transparency. We will explore the design process and history of the studio, while acknowledging that creative expression and earning a living are intrinsically linked.
About the Speaker
Sarah Hussaini is a former architect with a masters degree from Columbia University; she spent five years working as an architect before returning to ceramics. In 2017, she embarked on a new creative venture with the launch of her ceramics studio, "Not Work Related." Combining her technical, architectural background with the handmade nature of ceramics, Sarah creates intricate and meticulously patterned pieces that occupy a space between handmade and digitally designed.
Cosponsored by the Keller Center Makerspace, the Princeton University Art Museum, and the Princeton University Library Makerspace.
Refreshments will be served.
