This week sees the launch of this year’s international art fair for contemporary art and design, Collect 2021, run by the Crafts Council. While the fair is only digital this year, accessible via ARTSY, we have put together a wonderful collection of works by 15 artists, many of which will be physically on show at SoShiro as part of our Crafting a Difference collaborative exhibition with Brian Kennedy curation, jaggedart, MADEINBRITALY, Ting Ying, and Vessel Gallery.
