It's not that hard, you just have to make up a poignant and impactful story behind your creation. For example, you could call MoMA on the phone and tell them that you learnt the craft from your mother and she learnt it from her grandmother and so you come from a long linage of macramé artists that venerate the traditional roots that make the craft meaningful, instead of telling them you leant it from Domestika's online courses... which can be as meaningful, of course! But museums aren't that hip yet... Make Domestika your new tradition and you'll never have to listen to your family, again...! Okey, maybe that's going too far... We are not a sect, I promise.
