Creation and diffusion of craft histories
The goal of this deliverable is to illustrate the methodology developed by Ca’ Foscari University and shared with the HEPHAESTUS project partnership to create narratives about arts and crafts in Europe. Based on field research in Venice, Bassano del Grappa, Dals Långed, and Bornholm, the team is collecting photographs, videos, narratives, and creative materials to present the world of crafts in an innovative way. These “Craft Histories” will offer a unique perspective, allowing people to explore and appreciate the diverse aspects and resources of the craft ecosystems through the eyes of dedicated researchers.
