People behind the craft

Within the TAKING CARE experimental exhibition 'Extinctions!?' at the Weltmuseum Wien, we feature a showcase on endangered crafts. In September 2023 the story of the last traditionally working glassblowing manufactory was added in cooperation with Lena Wanner. Her company a mani brings the glass products to Austria. With this work she contributes to the preservation of glass art in Syria and supports the family that still keeps this art alive.

Get a documental insight into the process of glassblowing at the Abou Ahmad manufactory in Damascus, Syria, in the video on our homepage. Short film about the glassblowing manufactory Abou Ahmad Director of Photography: Zein Khuzam (Damascus) Editing: Lena Wanner, (Vienna), www.a-mani.at/
