“Entre redes” aims to incorporate the local net makers, whose job is in danger of extinction, in the design process of a product, combining the individuality of their artisan techniques with the possibilities of design and innovation.
Is it possible to combine craftmanship and design to help keep the tradition of a small fishing village alive?
“Entre redes” takes place in my hometown A Guarda, a small fishing village near the Portuguese coast. A place where throughout history, local collaborative work between women has been essential for the economical growth of the town.
The redeiras are a collective of women netmakers traditionally from Galicia, who are currently in danger of extinction. In order to pass on their profession to newer generations, they must innovate and diversify their work, but always maintain the origin and identity of their tradition.
How can we collaborate to empower a collective of women who fight for th future of their work?
Bolina, handmade by local redeiras, represents the magic of craftmanship, of those objects which tell a story, due to the individuality and emotion with which they are made.
It incorpates a group of women in danger of extinguishment and offers them an opportunity to innovate from their knowledge, traditions and tools.
