Bléharies from March 03 till April 16, 2001 (3/5)

1) In the embroidery Crazy, we find the joining of varied tissues, different textures, set by their colours, passing of the light in the dark. The threads are adapted to various used tissues. It's the same for needles. The used points are simple points as stitches of stalk, necklace, cross, slipper, thorn....

2) Mola is a detail of material obtained by superimposing and application inverted by coats of tissues of different colours (2 in 7 coats, sometimes more). This technique comes to us from Indian Kuna, from islands of San Blas Panama. In the language Kuna, Mola is a term which applies to the textile in general . The history goes back up to about 125 years. The Indian are crossed by the physical painting decorated with pearls, in the structured clothes. Certain motives are inspired by the nature where, according to the faith Kuna, every element is lived by the spirit of the Indian mythology, the folklore and the environment. Geometrical figures are from now on a part of the traditional art. 40 at 70 o'clock of work are often necessaires to realize Mola.
