  • From shoveling salt mounds under the Mexican sun, to scraping every last hair off a goatskin, we got an inside look at the people keeping age-old traditions and businesses alive around the globe. Whether they are protecting traditional methods threatened by modernization, or running centuries-old family businesses that have adapted to a changing world, we set out to find how and why they are still standing.

      It's not that they want to get filthy rich, but just to provide for their families and have a secure future. I hope they all grow their customer base and get paid well for their work, using some sort of social media might help with exposure.
      I think people realize the value in buying stuff made by hand over a manufacturer pressing out a 1000 at a time. The value is getting something beautiful, unique, that has some character because it's made by a craftsman, over cheap generic crap that is, well, cheap. This is the biggest selling point to me.
      Mass production is a modern marvel that has brought essential items like toothbrushes or shoes to poor areas. There's something to be said for that, but it makes me sad to see a person/family business struggle because they cant compete with the low prices as a result of mass production.
      I think both should exist. If someone needs a simple bowl to eat from, the ceramic maker has one for $7(that is the equivalent of mass produced products.) Or, if you want a heirloom quality one off handmade and hand painted teapot, you could also find one. If they dont have an online store, their demographic is limited to selling local or word of mouth.
      (Sorry for the long post, I just hate to see artisans struggling due to covid or getting steamrolled by a factory making generic garbage.)

    I just love this Series! I am touched by the level of dedication and commitment they all have to carry on their traditions and culture from one generation to the next. these all would be amazing to purchase. I am so impressed with the process of The Bidri Art! All done by hand and the inlay of gold or silver into the carved lines was fascinating to watch! Then to see them boil it in mud to get the black is incredible! I must get one of these!

    I had a collection of those special candles…they were my prized possessions for years because I knew they were hand made in this way. I gave several away and lost the rest from a move and have not been able to get them since my move from NM. I will though and I will again, treasure them.
    Dear Juan, the salt artisan~you are pure magic. I hope you know that and can continue your work. It is very important and I wish you health and strong business.
    To all of the artisans featured~you are very very special people and I hope you know that. I am not the only one who truly values your work and I hope you can continue your trade.
    Much Love from the bottom of my heart-these expose articles are inspiring to as an artist and consumer of global art…it just puts me in such a grateful space. Thank You, and all the very best. ❤️

    Love this. So glad you put them all together. Unfortunately people have lost their love of real craftsmanship to machines and mass production. It's everywhere from painters to pottery to music. We are losing craftsman daily and a lot of arts are almost dead. So its really nice to see these people trying to keep these arts alive. As an artist myself it's hard to turn profits because people think it should cost a dollar when your supplies cost hundreds. It's a driving reason soo many people in my generation look for different work. We can't feed ourselves with the expectations of free or nearly free. Your documentary series is very refreshing and I hope people will learn to love unique arts again. Once these are people are gone, you'll loose the knowledge of traditional crafts and their values.

    these wax flowers all have a special meaning... the white one represents affection for the bride, the red one also represents affection, and so does the pink one... So I guess they are all to represent affection, in different colors?

    I was raised in a home that valued hand crafts. We had regular school during the week, art class on Saturday, and Sunday school on Sunday morning before church. Our Mom insisted that we learn the disciplines of fine pencil art, and even pastels, water colors and oil painting for the older kids. As a boy, I was taught wood carving and wood burning too. It all faded away from practice as we got older, but Mom still knitted, crochet the linen alter gowns. She knew candle wicking, tatting, button tuck and lace weaving. Sadly none of my sisters took the time to learn those skills. Her hand work was legendary. Most people don't even know what these skills are, mush less have the knowledge to identify those arts when they see them, if they ever do.
    I had forgotten that we had formal art training as children. Then one day I started to paint a few birdhouses, and realized they were coming out like something made in a factory. I had obviously remembered more than I would have thought. Too bad I didn't continue my training. I may have even made a decent artist.
