Photographs and interviews about the work of craftspeople in Germany and Cyprus

The Goethe-Institut Cyprus presented the exhibition The Art of Making from December 2022 to February 2023. In this exhibition Georgios N. Paparoditis presents eight craftspeople from Germany and twelve from Cyprus through a series of photographs and interviews.
