TRADITION AND SKILL OF LOCAL CRAFTSMEN IN THE ART OF “PANARI”.
The rediscovery of the basket-maker art, using the resources of mother nature: rush and reeds, together with the thin brushwood grown in summer on the trunks of olive trees, are transformed into an experience with the guidance of Mastro Bruno. Hard-working hands merge ingenuity, art and nature in the ancient craft of the “master strawman”, with the creation of the typical “panari” (baskets).
VISUAL ART MEETING WITH THE MOSAIC ARTIST
The artist Stefania translates her emotions into works of art and, following her innate artistic vein, chops stones, traces lines and assembles colours. The visual art workshop with Stefania is a sensory experience in which you give space and form to your imagination, freeing your thoughts and shapes and creating the coloured tiles of her mosaics.
