Portes ouvertes de l'atelier
Open days at the Aozilh basketry workshop where the public of all ages will be able to discover this rich and complex profession, from the harvesting of the raw material, its packaging, to the technical creation of utilitarian or artistic articles. An exhibition/sale of articles will also be offered.
Originally from Haut-Savoyard and adopted from Poitevin, Stéphane Forêt-Deleau wanted to perpetuate an ancestral craft full of local imprints, to rediscover the taste for “doing”, to flourish in the smell of the wood that the exhilarating humidity and the strands of wicker that sing under the fingers, while refocusing in a world where “always more” and “always faster” annihilate the sweet flavor of time.
