\n\u00c8 in Italia, a Sant\u2019Antioco (Sardegna) l\u2019ultimo maestro rimasto di bisso, una tessitura antica: Chiara Vigo ha appreso quest\u2019arte, sviluppata esclusivamente nell\u2019area mediterranea, per trasmissione diretta e familiare. <\/span>
\n
\nIl bisso \u00e8 una fibra tessile: dai filamenti secreti da una specie marina di mollusco (Pinna nobilis) endemica del Mediterraneo si ottiene una tipologia di seta naturale. <\/span> Da 300 grammi di fibra grezza se ne ottengono 30 di fibra pura. Tessendo con le unghie ordito di lino e trama di bisso su un antichissimo telaio manuale, Chiara ha realizzato circa 70 tele, tutte dal significato simbolico, conservate a Sant\u2019Antioco ed esposte in musei. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIl bisso non si vende e non si compra. Le opere in seta del mare possono solo essere donate o ricevute. Un Maestro di bisso vive di offerte\u201d. Imparando quest\u2019arte, Chiara ha accettato sotto giuramento di proteggere mare e terra nonch\u00e9 di vivere di offerte.
\nChiara regala un filo di bisso che sembra oro ed \u00e8 disponibile a insegnare la sua arte a chi \u00e8 disposto a sacrificarsi per impararla, come lei fece con sua nonna Leonilda.<\/p>\n

Qui il link alla sua associazione e per sostenerla:

Sulla sua vita, anche un film bilingue (\u201cIl filo dell\u2019acqua\u201d) ed alcuni libri tra cui \u201cDal buio alla luce\u201d di Susanna Lavazza, \u201cIl bisso, una fibra misteriosa tra storia e letteratura\u201d di Eduardo Delehaye.<\/p>\n

English:
\nIt is in Italy, in Sant’Antioco (Sardinia) the last master of the sea silk (byssus), an ancient weaving: Chiara Vigo has learned this art, developed exclusively in the Mediterranean area, through direct and familiar transmission. The byssus is a textile fiber: from the filaments secreted by a marine species of mollusc (Pinna nobilis) endemic to the Mediterranean, a type of natural silk is obtained. From 300 grams of raw fiber, 30 of pure fiber are obtained. Weaving with her warp yarns and woven byssus on an ancient manual loom, Chiara has made about 70 canvases, all with a symbolic meaning, preserved in Sant’Antioco and exhibited in museums.
\n\u201cThe byssus is not sold and can not be bought. The silk works of the sea can only be donated or received. A Master of byssus lives on offerings\u201d. By learning this art, Chiara has accepted under oath to protect the sea and land and to live by offers. Chiara gives a thread of fine-grain that looks like gold and is available to teach her art to those willing to sacrifice himself to learn it, as she did with her grandmother Leonilda.<\/p>\n

Here the link to her association and to support it:

\nOn her life, also a bilingual film (“The water thread”) and some books including “From dark to light” by Susanna Lavazza, “The byssus, a mysterious fiber between history and literature” by Eduardo Delehaye.<\/p>\n
