<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">Artist and anthropologist, Michele Feder-Nadoff will share key concepts of an anthropology of making as they emerged in her long-term fieldwork
as an apprentice to the master coppersmith, Maestro Jesús Pérez Ornelas (1924-2014) and his sons in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacán, Mexico. Drawing from her recent monograph she will discuss how through this mentorship she learned not just how to hammer
a copper artifact, but what it meant “to be” an artisan in this traditional mestizo rural artisanal community. Making creates persons, places and things, she discovered, but also can become a method of hope and human agency.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
