Edition Fifteen

Meet the makers: Óscar, the Colombian craftsman working with Barniz de Pasto – a vibrant, centuries-old decorative lacquer made from natural resin; Marianne, the French metal artist shaping sculptural corsets and wall pieces entirely by hand in her mountain cabin; Elliot, a glassblower in central England reviving hand-blown sheet glass – a historic process once used in everything from sash windows to stained glass; Kay, the Copenhagen-based ceramicist rebuilding her practice in porcelain; and George, a Vermont Windsor chair maker carrying forward his father’s work.

These and all the other incredible makers featured in this edition offer a unique insight into what it means to be a modern-day craftsperson in an otherwise digital world.

This issue is about the places makers work, the skills they carry forward, and the choices they make as custodians of craft.
