As a representation of tradition and culture, folk art is a quintessential form of human expression and has been inspiring us since the dawn of civilization.
Meanwhile as trends come and go in the modern world, we continue to look back with curiosity at folk and traditional elements with all the mysteriousness and stories they harbour.
It is human nature to look to the past when seeking inspiration — particularly in art. Unlike other genres that can be attributed to a specific era or style, folk art is harder to define or categorise due to its special place in the hearts of local communities. Although it used to be created for practical purposes, each piece tells a story of cultural heritage and craftsmanship that transcends time to inspire the creatives of today.
NEW FOLK ART is a collection of creative projects in the sphere of art, design, handicrafts, and more. Categorised into Pattern, Symbol, Tale, and Craft, our latest release showcases the ingenious work of artists, designers, and creatives that bridge heritage with the contemporary in order to create new horizons with our roots in mind.
