Description

Nineteen craftswomen, nineteen trades, nineteen workshops. Writer Blaise Hofmann and photographer Vincent Guignet embark on a quest to find nineteen women from Western Switzerland who practice their craft with passion: blacksmith, glassblower, saddler, quilter, violin maker, organ builder, tattoo artist, weaver…
What unites these craftswomen is the joy of manual work, of the here and now, of daily creation – all in the spirit of a tradition that has sometimes existed for thousands of years. With an infectious joy of discovery and encounter, Blaise Hofmann and Vincent Guignet open the doors to these rare places, true treasure chambers, where unique objects are kept.
