Various cultural things happen in Matera and we went to visit the artisan Expo and discovered something very interesting. The Libbans.
What are "Lebbans"?
They are the ancient vegetable ropes produced in Maratea until the end of the 70s and used by fishermen to moor their boats.
Maratea is an ancient seaside village in Basilicata that overlooks the Tyrrhenian Sea and is a destination for seaside tourism.
Rope making is the focus of a local women's association's activities. Using the traditional technique of completely manual processing, the laboratory produces libbani, starting from hand-cut grass (Ampelodesmos mauritanicus), a plant that abounds in the Mediterranean scrub.

From the ropes, anciently used for boating and fishing, traditional artefacts and objects with a contemporary design are born through weaving, weaving and sewing techniques.

Design research is carried out through a program of artistic residencies and collaborations with designers and makers, with the aim of building a new language for artisanal production.

马泰拉有各种各样的文化活动，我们去参观了手工艺博览会，发现了一些非常有趣的东西。利巴尼。
什么是“利巴尼”？
它们是 70 年代末在马拉泰亚生产的古老植物绳索，渔民用它来系泊船只。
马拉泰亚是巴西利卡塔的一个古老海滨村庄，俯瞰第勒尼安海，是海滨旅游的目的地。
绳索制作是当地妇女协会活动的重点。实验室采用传统的完全手工加工技术，从手工割下的草（Ampelodesmos mauritanicus）开始生产利巴尼，这是一种在地中海灌木丛中大量生长的植物。

从古代用于划船和捕鱼的绳索开始，通过编织、编织和缝纫技术，诞生了具有现代设计的传统手工艺品和物品。

设计研究通过艺术驻留计划和与设计师和制造商的合作进行，旨在为手工生产建立一种新的语言。
