Humans have always used their hands to create the world around
them. But now most of us have gone from being practitioners to
theorists, from being producers to consumers. What happens to our
society when we are so divorced from the act of making? What
happens to us as individuals when we limit the uses to which we put
our hands? These are questions that preoccupy Siri Helle when she
inherits a cabin of 25 square metres, without electricity, inlet
water, or a loo, and decides to build an outhouse herself. Without
any previous experience of building anything, she has to learn on
the job and what she learns is not just about how to lay a floor
and construct walls, but about what she is capable of and about
craft and about the satisfactions to be found in making things by
hand. Written with humour and insight, Handmade is the inspiring
story of someone who tried to do it herself - and did.
