Spain: Net Working
Atalaia exemplifies the power of community and the enduring value of traditional craft in modern times.
In the picturesque region of Galicia in northwest Spain, the tradition of netmaking and repair is deeply intertwined with the local fishing industry. This craft, historically carried out by women, has seen a resurgence thanks to the efforts of organized associations. Among these associations is Atalaia, a key member of the Galician Federation of Artisanal Netmakers, O Peiran.
