Tiny White Huipil 1- Unframed

Tiny White Huipil 1 is part of a series of artwork inspired by the Huipil, a traditional women’s garment from Chiapas, Mexico and Guatemala. The indigenous women from these regions are famous for their hand weaving perfected over thousands of years. This multi-colored piece features the long tail feathers that are hand screen-printed on recycled plastic. I have used women’s clothing as a source of inspiration for many years. Indigenous people are at risk due to habitat fragmentation along with birds and other species.

Unframed Size: 19 x 19 x 2“

Materials: hand screen-printing on recycled plastic, hand and machine sewing, wrapping, cording, waxed linen thread
