| A Mola, in the Kuna
culture, is a traditional blouse worn by the Indian
Women. It is made from two intricately appliquéd panels. These
colorful graphic panels have long been admired by visitors to the San
Blas Archipelago and are collected as an art form. There are two
ways to view my modest collection: For those of you who prefer a
quick review of the pieces, I offer a text INDEX
, with small files, quick downloads and moderate quality.
For those who have time to meander and would like a closer look at
this unique needle work, please tour the collection through the PHOTO
INDEX with its large files, slow downloads and better quality.
Thank you for your interest. Enjoy!
