Artisans & Their art forms
HAITIAN METAL ART
Hundreds of industrious artists in Croix des Bouquets, outside Port de Prince, take old, tossed out 55-gallon oil drums and recycle them into something extraordinary.
The process of making metal art starts with cutting, opening and burning a barrel. Then, stenciling a pattern, tracing it, pounding out the shape with a hammer and taking away excess pieces of metal, and finally sanding and varnishing the piece. Truly amazing!

SMOLArt
SMOLArt is a group of artists who live in the rural village of Tabaka, Kenya, the heart of soapstone crafts. As members of the WFTO, they ensure artisans are paid a fair price for their work. In addition, the organization supports community development by contributing to projects that improve living conditions, education, and health of their members and village members.
Artisans use household items from screwdrivers, hand drills, to switchblades, to sword-like tools to cleave the stone in the mines.
