Cosma and Damiano at Giudecca, in the presence of the 16 companies that will take part in the project.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Arbos is one of the selected companies.\u00a0\u201cSecret dreams\u201d is aimed at \u201c<strong>creative industries<\/strong>\u201d and at sectors specialising in Italian-made products with a high level of artistic craftsmanship. This is the sector in which the need is most felt to keep the craft tradition alive, as well as the great technical and artistic ability of the territory. While on one hand the \u201cwell-made Italian\u201d sector is presented as one of the main resources for boosting creativity, on the other it seems difficult to encourage the younger generations to approach the traditional view of handicrafts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The declared aim of the project is to favour the\u00a0<strong>transmission of the craftsmen&#8217;s skill through generations of creative artists<\/strong>\u00a0and to exploit the experience of the \u201cmasters\u201d to highlight the artisan imagination, all that craftsmen have dreamed of during their career but have not yet managed to achieve. Their secret dreams thus become the element on which to work to create a new connection with young people and become a source of inspiration for the new generations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Thanks to this project, the secret dreams of the master craftsmen will come to life along with the creativeness of the young, to give a new life force to creative companies and rediscover the skills and values that ensured the greatness of a whole generation of \u201cmakers in Italy\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned so as not to miss the next developments of the project!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How does a\u00a0craftsman&#8216;s work begin?
