EXHIBITION "WEAVING THE REED"
The exhibition "Weaving the Reed" centers on the craftsmanship of reed mats from Forjães, a "know-how" that became the main artisanal industry of this village for much of the 20th century.
This artisanal labor is portrayed through the lens of Juan Pablo Moreiras, a French photographer whose work has illustrated numerous exhibitions and publications, including those of UNESCO World Heritage, as well as features in prestigious international magazines.
Additionally, this exhibition hosts pieces from the "Water Earth Fire" showcase, which are the results of work produced over the last four editions of the academic project "'Design' and Territory" by ESMAD, the Polytechnic Institute of Porto.
