Description
The souls of pelota (pilota arimak) are the objects that allow this sport to exist: pala, chistera, xare, leather gloves and the most emblematic of all, the ball, pilota, which gave its name in signature. The souls of pelota are also these artisans who create and allow this centuries-old activity to continue. Photographer Polina Jourdain-Kobycheva entered the intimacy of the workshops to tell us the story of these men and these materials. Texts by Yves Carlier, bilingual French – Basque edition
