Other forms of artisanal work has arisen in the "Alto Minho", absorbing some characteristics of traditional art and trade, but giving a new testimony to modern generation.

"Carla Padinha", a young and energetic artisan from "Caminha", is an example of the new effort in the artwork, being it linen, wool, straight from the traditional compendiums of artwork, but always in an "artesinal" category called "Artesanato Urbano" (urban artistic technique).

Dedicating a especial attention to embroidery, to the genesis and substance of the traditional activities of a piscatorial location, such as "Caminha", never forgetting its union to the earth. The cultivation of corn, is sort to the rural work where in opposition of the agricultural ornaments. there is an appentance for which the corn is honoured by its fine texture and its colours.

In short, "Carla Padinha" works in searches to give a new identification for common and ancestral images in ancestral works, always respecting the historical lines of artistic skills, which are characteristic of the "Alto Minho", but contributing to this art with new forms and new motives.
