Last week, I came across the work of Nathan Vincent on Lost At E Minor. He creates 3D and 2D forms that question notions of masculinity and femininity. He does this by crocheting (a 'feminine' technique) traditionally masculine objects and symbols such as crushed beer cans and lawn mowers.
I really need to do something about learning how to crochet. Must buy Hookorama by Rachael Matthews.
Allegedly crocheting/knitting is really easy. I am sceptical. I would definitely make an effort to learn... but I'm finding it difficult enough to make time for the hobbies I already have... I will definitely fail uni if I get even more!
