This initiative aims to document the evolving narrative of traditional craftsmanship, blending it with contemporary influences to create a rich tapestry of cultural heritage. At the heart of Crafted Lives is a journey to explore the lives of artisans who are not just preserving but also transforming their age-old crafts for the contemporary world.
