Passos, Émille; Pinheiro, Isabela

Poster:

Bobbin lace from Morros da Mariana has been gaining importance in Brazil. This survey takes into account the urban area in the state of Piauí and addresses the prospects for retaining this local craft as well as the risks it ran over the past 20 years of dying out in the community and how projects being carried out have helped to change this scenario. With the findings from interviews conducted with lace makers, data is analysed showing the number of people willing to learn the technique and pass on the tradition.
