Crafts art bank does gathers knowledge from different crafts skill. We are just in the beginning of creating this.
" The idea to create Crafts art bank started to my restoration study times when I noticed how hard it is to find information in restoration area. Fot my theses I planned at first to make restoration and conservation vocabulary. I abandoned that idea but from that idea also arise the idea to create Crafts art bank where one could find also knowledge about rarer crafts so that the researcher could have a bit easier start when starting own crafts researches. I had a more deeper thought about the necessity of Crafts art bank when I did my theses about kinkarakami. The art of making kinkarakami had vanished and the resuscitation of kinkarakami production was challenging and arduous. My insipiration also came from document film about French banker Albert Kahn and his photo and film collection about different culture on that era. I wish that over time this Crafts art bank would became trustworthy and encompassing crafts data collection organization for also just in case that some art of cfarts making dies out or that there is no anyone who know the craft. In my mind it is a shame to loose any crafts knowledge that we have."
