| dc.description.abstract | Recent research has examined the use of radical crafting in feminist activism and advocacy, extending the role of craft beyond the domestic sphere. This thesis conducts a case study of public Instagram accounts to understand how craft-based activism is practiced online. Using a semiotic analysis applied to Instagram images, Reels, Lives, captions, and comments, this thesis explores how politics are practiced through community and identity building, and positions future research to continue exploring the opportunities and limitations faced by those participating in digital activism. | |
