ARTISAN TECHNIQUES
The Kuna textile was handsewn by artisan women of the Guna Dule community of Caimán Alto, Colombia. For generations, the artisan women have passed down an ancient appliqué technique of hand sewing cut-out layers of fabric to form an intricate piece of art. Each fabric is the unique design of the artisan woman who carefully crafted it. In the Guna culture, beliefs and traditions can be found woven into each composition. Some depict stories, animals or daily scenes while others portray a more abstract design
