Greek to me !

The Benaki Museum Passementerie hosts the event Itinérance (Travelogue), a project created by Alexia Tronel and Caroline Perdrix as a development of their personal brand Atelier Bartavelle. Their travelogue starts from Greece and more specifically from Tinos and continues in four other Mediterranean countries: Tunisia, Lebanon, Morocco and Turkey. Their aim is to create a limited collection of clothes made by women of a past generation, which intends to transmit the experience and knowledge of those women to the present generation. In the Benaki Museum Passementerie are presented 8 sweaters knitted by the grandmothers, 4 photographs and two video projections, all of them created during the first visit of theTravelogue.
