This workshop introduces the traditions of creating folk dolls that accompanied people in everyday life and holidays. Play and ritual dolls reflect folk culture, and their handcrafted crafts help connect with the craft traditions of the past.
Marina Shatkovskaya
Hello, my name is Marina. I am an expert in traditional culture, a master of decorative and applied arts, a member of the Union of Artists of Russia, and a PhD in technical sciences.
My interest in costume culture began in my youth and led to training as a fashion designer, which became the foundation of my professional interests. Further study of traditional costume and rag dolls has become an important part of my work as a teacher and researcher. The results of numerous expeditions across Russia are reflected in my artwork.
Since 2014, my workshop, "Doll and Folk Costume," has been operating in Mandrogi.
I invite you to my workshop to immerse yourself in the world of traditional costume and dolls.
