Conversation with Legeza Márta – basket weaver. Legeza Márti works at the Hungarian Heritage House and she has a passion for the craft of basket weaving. She is now an expert on everything about basket weaving in Hungary, has travelled to study basket weaving traditions in other European countries and won a grant from the Hungarian Academy of Arts to seek out master Hungarian basket weavers and learn from them. There is discussion of whether handcraft traditions are only something from the past, or should they be re-thought for today’s every day life. Interview by Grozdits Károly.
