New masters: A wood-turner at heart

New masters: A wood-turner at heart

Martina Bizovská

Eduard Hupka, who was awarded the title of Master of Folk Art Production in the field of woodworking, lives in the small municipality of Gáň near Galanta. Since childhood, he has been working in woodturning, a craft based on the principle of shaping wood using special knives or chisels which uses the rotating movement of wood, symmetrically around an axis. The master, with his wife Anna, welcomed us into their home, where they showed us not only a little of their life, but also of their craft.
