Description

As part of London Craft Week we are delighted to welcome to Dora House  Hong Kong based Crafts on Peela charitable organization that aims to revive, reinterpret and perpetuate traditional craftsmanship by fostering collaborations between traditional craftsmen and contemporary artisans through apprenticeships and an exchange of techniques, with the aim of nurturing the younger generations to incorporate traditional skills into innovative contemporary designs.

Craft on Peel will present 'Hearts & Hands: Crafts of Hong Kong' an exhibition celebrating the skills and creativity of Hong Kong’s artisans and a reminder of the importance of craftsmanship in preserving the city’s culture and heritage. Crafts on Peel hopes that it will inspire visitors to revive, reinterpret and perpetuate traditional crafts in their own lives, and to play a part in keeping alive Hong Kong’s rich culture of craftsmanship.

'Hearts & Hands: Crafts of Hong Kong' features twelve collaborative works by traditional craftsmen and contemporary artisans, and two in-person craft workshops hosted by contemporary artisans Inkgo Lam  and Ken Chow respectively.

Free 30-minute long guided tours will be offered daily at 11.30am and 3pm. Click here for more information https://www.londoncraftweek.com/events/hearts-and-hands-crafts-of-hong-kong/
