'Pattern is the best thing in the world.'
Whilst looking into the work of ceramicist Carol McNicoll for a review of her retrospective at Hove Museum I stumbled across the National Electronic and Video Archive of the Crafts. What a fantastic project!
'The National Electronic and Video Archive of the Crafts - NEVAC - gathers materials which will act as a resource for those researching the nature of the Crafts. These materials are characteristically in the form of digital video and sound recordings of people who have been intimately associated with the development of the Crafts in Britain.
There are currently 261 hours of interviews with 118 people, (including ceramists, textile artists, wood-workers, print-makers, enamel artists and curators).'
