The Big Picture Magazine 8 (2023) on Craft


The eighth issue of The Big Picture, a magazine produced by the Kirby Laing Centre, has recently been made available.


According to the blurb:


‘This latest edition explores the theme of Craft, and in it you will find, among others, articles on why art matters today; the ethics of craft; the beauty and power of photography; how paying attention and being handy can be transformative; on doing well whatever your hand finds to do; on the importance of resisting the global consumer machine and making things by hand; on traditional Japanese boat building; on books as sacred sites; on the biblical foundations of journalism; on crafting human hearts; on the craft of translation; on pursuing obscurity; and much more.’


More information is available here, and the issue can be downloaded as a pdf here.
