The photos show the professional processing of nine different materials: stone, wood, metal, leather, cotton, glass, electricity, photo film, and plastic. In this way they speak about the interaction of hand, machine, and material. The images are juxtaposed with recordings carried out in workshops of the sounds of machines and tools, mixed with conversations the artist had with the craftsmen during their work. Every encounter brings up the same initial question: How has their work changed over time since they started their profession? Very different conversations develop, sometimes longer and more detailed, sometimes very short and concise.
