The Weavers, Sarbi, Maramures, 2000

In summer the family loom lies jumbled in the barn like a heap of broken scythe handles. But in winter, it is time for women to maintain the family’s supply of woven wealth, and for a young woman to begin creating her dowry. The loom takes shape in the family living space; its shuttle flies – hours a day.
