‘Patana Canvases: Unveiling the Artistic Practices of Our Community’ celebrates creativity and education, documenting the first Teachers as Practitioners Project (TAPs) exhibition at Bangkok Patana School, Thailand. This full-colour catalogue showcases the artistic journeys of thirty-one staff members who participated in the TAPs professional learning programme and highlights how artistic practice enriches both personal and professional growth. This book is part of a wider research project led by Purnima Ruanglertbutr, TAPs project Researcher and Curator. It features reflective statements from the artists, exploring the concepts behind their work and the impact of the TAPs programme, alongside Ruanglertbutr’s research report, ‘The Power of Creative Practice in Education’. This report synthesises survey and artists’ reflection findings to reveal the transformative effects of art-making on the well-being, teaching and working practices, and school culture of educators and professionals in education. The Teachers as Arts Practitioners (TAPs) exhibition reveals how fostering creative practice enhances pedagogy, strengthens community connections, reinvigorates passion-led teaching and work, nurtures artistic confidence, encourages cross-disciplinary connections, and fosters a vibrant community of creative practitioners. Through reflections, case studies, and research insights, this exhibition examines the ‘artist-teacher’ phenomenon and the role of creativity in education, inviting educators, school leaders, artists, and arts advocates to explore the potential of creative practice in shaping individuals, international schools and communities while inspiring a dynamic learning environment. Highlighting the transformative power of creativity, this research exhibition catalogue is a must-read for anyone passionate about the arts in education.

Release Date: 2021-11-29
This book presents a comprehensive socio-cultural history of crafts and crafts persons in pre-colonial Eastern India. It focuses on the technology of crafts as being integral to the traditional lives of the crafts persons and explores their cultural and social world. It offers an in-depth analysis of the complexities of craft technologies in the three sectors of cotton textile, sericulture and silk textile and mining and metallurgy in the regions of Bihar and Jharkhand in Eastern India in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Apart from technology, the book discusses a range of socio-economic themes including craft production systems; marketing and financing patterns; impact of contact with the world market; craft persons’ identities in terms of caste affiliations and group divisions; negotiations for upward caste mobility; contestations and dissent of lower castes; power and social stratification; functioning of caste panchayats; gender division of craft labour; myths, beliefs and religiosity attributed to craft usages; social and ritual traditions; and contemporary craft traditions. Rich in archival and diverse sources, including oral traditions, paintings, and findings from extensive field visits and interactions with crafts persons, this book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of crafts, medieval Indian history, social history, sociology and social anthropology, economic history, cultural history, science and technology studies, and South Asian studies. It will also interest government and non-governmental organisations, textile historians, craft and design specialists, contemporary craft industrial sector, and museums.
