Winding roads traversing
Andean mountains take farmers and their cattle to verdant
fields. With assured and determined step, this kid herds his
llamas through a mountainous trek under a warming sky. Rendered
in vibrant hues with crystal clarity, this tapestry is set to
bring Peruvian charm to any setting.
Using wool and cotton (90/10%) on a handloom, Luis Paucar
creates this colorful portrait of life in the Peruvian
highlands. The brilliant colors are achieved by carefully
blending artificial dyes and natural pigments, producing clear,
vibrant tones. "Our textile art has always been distinguished
for the purity and joy of its colors," Paucar affirms. "We
maintain the San Pedro weaving tradition, proud of its history
and prestige." Working together, the Paucar family creates
exquisite tapestries that reflect everyday customs, feelings and
beliefs. |
