Gangolf Ulbricht is one of the last papermakers in Europe that is still making his craft by hand. He uses wood-free fibers like cotton, flax, hemp, rags, and Manila hemp as the foundation for his creations. In this short film by Kings & Kongs, watch the process unfold as he works in his studio in the Kreuzberg borough of Berlin.

The process of making paper is quite intricate, especially when done by hand. What intrigues you the most about Gangolf Ulbricht's skill?

@rmeier66 4 года назад

Dude is too cool. Love this video and wish NatGeo did more like this.

@AzlianaLyana 6 лет назад

This is one of those forgotten skills. Not sure if it will make a comeback, but still, this is a really interesting skill to have and he seems to have a very deep passion towards paper making. Well, hope his demand grows. Thanks for sharing National Geographic.

@LightningSe7en 6 лет назад

People love mass produced stuff - cheap and in bulk. But there is passion in love in a handcrafted item and there are people who are into that (me) and willing to pay good money for anything "tailor-made".

@magnolia763 6 лет назад

"People love what other people are passionate about" -lala land- And I think that quote is true. Idk that handmade papers would be this amazing😍

@gavin9312 6 лет назад

Does anyone else find it ironic that so much liquid is used in the making of paper despite water being paper’s worst enemy?

@LxightFxxls 6 лет назад

Its like paper is made from removing the water, and when water is added it reverts back as he uses recycled paper

Or water like I am your mom I gave you birth and I can also kill.

There truly is something special and unique about handmade items, isn't there? We're glad that people like Gangolf are keeping the practice of making things this way alive.

Yes, several trees died in the making of this video, but they were all bad, bad trees. One of them did nothing all day but turn oxygen into carbon dioxide.. he was just THAT evil.

@sophilia1176 6 лет назад

New Message Just for your information...the paper he was making (or which they made in those days) was not made from trees. Paper made from trees is actually the shittiest you can get.

@josephgomes6829 6 лет назад

Had you read the info on this film you would have learned that he uses only wood free elements. So no tree's were "killed" making this video besides...(see other comment)

nitpoon maybe you did'nt see it but he makes all his paper with wood free elements.

@nitpoon7982 6 лет назад

Joseph Gomes yes I think it's fantastic my comment was just in general we can make all paper from hemp alone there's a lot of things we could make with hemp much stronger than cotton but in no way was I trying to say anything bad about the video

@josephgomes6829 6 лет назад

nitpoon ahh okay sorry if I confused your comment. I totally agree. Hemp is like a wonder plant, you can use it for almost everything. There is a company in Germany, I believe, making pre-fab houses using hemp. Amazing stuff, paper, cloth, medicines. Is there really nothing you cannot do with it??
