Description: If you want to create a truly unique and stylish space, consider combining abstract art, antique textiles, and boho wall art for an eclectic home décor vibe. Whether it's framed art or handmade wall art, each piece adds character to your living room décor. Pair a contemporary art piece with a handmade quilt or a traditional Panama Mola for a striking contrast. For those who love farmhouse décor or modern décor, a thoughtfully curated gallery wall art display can elevate the room, bringing together the best of both worlds. Embrace the charm of antique finds while adding touches of modern flair for a truly personalized look. Title:Little fish Mola PanelOrigin:Indigenous Kuna Community of Panama and Colombia.Style:Handmade Textile ArtDimensions:14” x 11” Approx.Category:Labyrinthine/Naturalistic StyleAge:Vintage from before 2000Orientation:Landscape/PortraitShape:RectangularNo of layers:2Technique:Reverse Applique Technique & EmbroideryModel No:03CM0908 Description:All the mola panels created in this style contain a central image of typically two animals, usually birds, facing each other. They are fancifully created amidst vegetation typically recognizable as belonging to the San Blas Islands. The design is maze-like, using a series of closely cut parallel lines that also move the figures into the background. These mola panels are always two-layered and use equally saturated colors, often of colors on opposite sides of the color wheel. Black or white is also often used as the dramatic opposition to vibrant color. The effect is dazzling. The Kuna color sense is very sensitive to the effects that they are trying to create with this type of panel, and they are very successful. Colors typically used with other styles of mola panels, such as yellow, orange, and red, are not likely to be used in this category, rather we are as likely to see a hot pink or a shocking blue. If a typical color is used, it is juxtaposed with a color of equal intensity thus creating the illusion of vibration and overall motion. Often, the bottom layer of the panel is the same fabric as is used for the yoke and sleeves, creating a blouse that feels unified. Clearly, for many of the labyrinthine blouses, the entire unit is in advance planned.This mola has a bright blue background and a maroon foreground. It has a simplified naturalistic design and depicts two small porcupines almost symmetrical placed. ✂PackagingBecause we consider our Molas unique pieces, we like to treat them with care, either for you or as a gift for someone else.
