Esmé Hofman / NL

„I am a traditional trained basketmaker and learned the fundations of my craft at the German basketry school in Lichtenfels. Since then I increased my knowledge and repertoire by learning with other crafts and fellow craftsman. I specialized in willow skein work. This very time consuming techniques is my absolute weaving passion. I work for designers, museums and currently I am developing my own collection. Next to that I like to teach basketry not only willow skein work but also other techniques and materials.

On my website www.esmehofman.nl you can see my work.“

Mònica Guilera / Catalonia

Monica learnt basketmaking in the Catalan tradition combining willow and split European cane, with over 17 years of making and teaching experience she has a wide repertoire and enjoys designing contemporary functional baskets. One of Monica’s specialities is the Nansa fishtrap technique that has been used by fisherman around the Mediterranean since ancient times, with deep roots and a modern sensibility Monica’s work explores colour, form and pattern ideal for the contemporary home.

Mònica work has been exhibited widely in Europe with contributions to recent exhibitions in Finland, Germany, Denmark and France, as an experienced tutor she teaches internationally and her workshops are always in demand.

François Desplanches
artisan vannier osiériculteur

„After a first job as solo environment consultant engineer, I discovered basketry by chance at the end of 1999 and became a professional basketmaker in 2001 at the age of 35. This humble commitment consisting in making a living from an activity to keep this activity alive is very imporrtant for me. I’m self taught, and try to learn and improve my skill all the time; my favorite techniques are scallomed stakes baskets, some frame baskets, and basketry for England or Brittany.

I grow by hand about ten willow varieties on a 1.500 m² willow bed in my small village of Dordogne, south west of France.“
