THE LAST STRAW PROJECT
Meet the makers
Skill lives in the hands, in memory and in the care given to every detail.
THE CRAFT
The beauty is in the detail.
Chair caning and straw weaving demand precision, tactile awareness and an understanding of the materials. The images shared by the association provide an intimate look at these skilled processes.
Through The Last Straw Project, this work is presented as craft to be valued and a story worth sharing.
