About The Vessel
The Vessel is an online magazine about crafts and material culture. The Vessel looks at the world through a craft lens – showcasing making practices, visual expression, and material knowledge from a multitude of perspectives.
Norwegian Crafts was originally set up as an online magazine designed
to promote Norwegian craft artists internationally nearly ten years
ago. Since then, the organisation’s programming portfolio has grown to
include exhibitions, grant schemes, seminars, residencies, and much
more. With The Vessel, we hope to entice more people to immerse
themselves in craft, making practices and material culture.
The Vessel collaborates with external editors, artists, and writers to make the content of each issue relevant to people from different geographies and backgrounds. Norwegian Crafts opts to recruit new editors for each issue and leave the commissioning of articles and other content up to them.
