Exhibition “Made Heads – New Expressions in Artisanal Practices”

Starting from the memory of the cabeçudo — the papier-mâché mask that marked the Loulé Shrovetide — about 50 local creators were challenged to transform the lid of a pot with a classic silhouette into a piece of free expression, where the utilitarian function gives way to narrative, experimentation and the identity of each author.

Each participant was challenged to put their technical skills into perspective and to experiment with new languages, in a collective reflection on the possible paths to traditional know-how.

Marking the 10th anniversary of Loulé Criativo, the exhibition brings together a creative community that has been consolidated over the last decade, bringing together experienced artisans and new generations of creators, aged between 25 and 89, from different contexts, backgrounds and geographies.
