Exhibition “Creating is a woman”

1 May 2024

In the exhibition hall of the Collegiata dei Santi Pietro e Orso in Aosta, you can visit the exhibition “Creare è donna, artigiani del valdostano al femminile”, curated and set up by the MAV-Museo dell’Artigianato Valdostano di Tradizionale. An exhibition that celebrates female craftsmanship, a hymn to manual skills that have no gender. At the center is know-how: a story of tenacity and passion, a thread that unites times, places and people. The exhibition opens with a contemporary installation that uses the craft object to tell the present time. The journey then continues with three rooms that, work after work, tell the passion of hobbyist craftswomen, the life choices of professionals and the preservation of a tradition of the past with textile cooperatives.
