生活在织物中 姐德秀的编织者们

Living Amidst Fahric: The Weavers of Chide Shol

雅鲁藏布江流过位于山南地区的姐德秀镇,由于江水漫滩,姐德秀人一直缺少耕田。历代以来,姐德秀镇以出产西藏传统手工织物“邦典”和“氆氇”闻名。古老的编织手艺,数百年不变地在当地人手中延续,这是一个生活在织物中的小世界。随着时代变迁,姐德秀以织业为中心的生活模式在发生变化。

The waters of the Bramahputra River flowing through Lhokha's Chide Shol village have been brimming over into the fields. The town turned to the labric industry and became the manufacturer of the traditional Tibetan hand made apron and woolen tweed cloth, so famous throughout Tibet. This age-old handicraft practiced by the people of Chide Shol had remained virtually unchanged for hundreds of years, a life revolving around a small world of fabric.
