Putting together the best of Chilean craftsmanship for the first time in the United Kingdom, the Chilean craft, Human Natures exhibition aims to shed light to the diversity of the know-how of crafts in this plural territory, inserted between the high Andes and the wild Pacific.
About
Fully integrating nature within their artistic and technologic processes, by notably using local raw materials such as vegetal fibers growing near the lakes, soil from the Atacama Desert, river stones and copper from the mountains, these Chilean artisans give us exceptional handcrafted works which represent a perfect balance between the esteem of the raw material and the cultural load within the manufacturing process.
This exhibition is presented by the Ministry of Cultures, Arts and Heritage of Chile, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and supported by the Embassy of Chile in the UK
