Kirsty Hartsiotis

Exploring the lives and work of the radical Arts and Crafts women in Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds.

Women artists and makers in the Cotswolds

Two beautifully illustrated online lectures all about the work of women artists and makers in the Cotswolds and around. The first lecture looks at women in the Arts and Crafts Movement, and the second at women's work in local churches.

<p>The Arts and Crafts Movement was one of the first art movements to recognise the artistry and skills of women artists and designers. In the Cotswolds, women designers worked as hard as men – but they are still today not as well-known as their male counterparts. This talk seeks to put right this situation, exploring embroidery, ceramics, metalwork, stained glass, bookbinding and other ‘suitable’ (or not) crafts, and look at the perceptions of female designers and makers at the time they were producing in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.</p>
