For centuries, Norfolk Islanders have transformed the natural fibres around them into practical and beautiful objects. From hibiscus bark to banana fibre and pandanus, these natural materials became clothing, string, bedding, tools and more. In this film, we explore the patience and skill behind these traditional crafts, including the process of making banana-fibre string. Through Jane’s eyes, we understand that working with natural fibres provides a connection to knowledge that has been passed down through generations.
