Abstract:
Foutura Sib talks with Binaté Kambou about her life as a potter. As a small girl she learned to make pots, to crush potsherds and to knead clay. Later she fetched clay together with other women, she made pots for millet gruel, decorated waterpots. As a married woman she decorated her room with many pots, produced pots for brewing beer and took them to the market after firing. In case of damage a diviner has to be consulted. Now, as an old woman, she produces also sacred pots. Today the claypots have to compete with aluminium-pots and plastic tons.
