Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

NEW FOLK ART features a colourful collection of work from around the world that draws from ancient folklore and traditional craft, breathing new life into tales that have been passed down through generations.

It is human nature to look to the past when seeking inspiration for the future—particularly in art. Unlike other genres, which can typically be attributed to a specific time period or style, folk art is harder to define or categorise due to its special place in the hearts of local communities.

Although it used to be created for practical purposes, each piece tells a story of cultural heritage and craftsmanship that has transcended time to inspire the artists and designers of today.
