The Art of Weaving: Making and Unmaking Gender at the Loom

This WGSS event is being led by one of our own professors, Shweta Krishnan! Drawing from her own research, Professor Krishnan will analyze the gendering of textile weaving and how it has been refigured to fit the neoliberal market. This event will focus on how these weavers make and unmake themselves at the intersections of gender, ethnicity, and capitalism.
