List of craftspeople and artists

 

 

As part of the results of the site missions, the work of local craftspeople and artists who use traditional materials or techniques in the production of their pieces was revealed. The aim of the project has been to raise awareness and disseminate the work of these craftspeople, who use the values of heritage in a creative and artistic way, also addressing the principles of sustainabilty. The recorded interviews conducted with each artisan are presented below, as an informative useful list to know specificities, personal and commercial information.

This list aims to contribute to the visualization of little-known and valued activities, as well as to facilitate contact between professionals, as well as with the public. Finally, it wants to be understood as a living catalog that could be expanded incorporating contacts at an international level.
