This is my first empirical paper drawn from my fieldwork in Guangzhou during 2020-2021. The writing process is long as I have been reflecting on my own positionality as a researcher and a peer. Feel humbled to promote this article but really welcome any of your thoughts😺

Thanks for my commentors from the Journal of Modern Craft and Craft Studio https://t.co/WP452Sc5uu I also learnt from @li_mixue for her suggestions on organisation studies readings and @WeiaoX for his insights as a historian. 🪸

This is a difficult writing process that opens a window for me into craft studies (while I still try to keep a sociological lens.) 😼 https://t.co/PzqZniPThz
