By Artisan
The artisans collaborating with Sāmsam work within and beyond East Asian craft lineages. Their practice is rooted in inherited skills yet attuned to change — negotiating between tradition, material constraint, and contemporary life. Each work emerges from this exchange, where hand and matter respond to one another, carrying traces of time, gesture, and transformation. Together, they form a living continuity of craft — one that endures not by repetition, but by renewal through use.
