The Rebozo in art, culture and fashion was the theme behind, the "Made in Mexico" exhibition I saw last weekend at the Fashion and Textiles Museum . A weaved rectangular shawl which forms part of the mexican woman national dress which is still popular nowdays. Friday Kahlo wore it often and it appeared on her paintings. Whith sections on its history, styles, craftmanship, and its presence in contemporary art , it was a very complete and enjoyable visit. The fringes caught my attention with their intricate macrame work.

Rebozos
Y no para comer, sino para vestir que vi el domingo en el Fashion and Textile Museun con motivo de la exhibicion "Made in Mexico" . El rebozo es rectangulo de tela de una pieza que se usa normalmente sobre los hombros, tejido a mano que forma parte del atuendo tipico de la mujer mejicana desde hace siglos. Frida Kahlo lo dio a conocer internacionalmete como podemos ver aqui. .Lila Downs lleva un modelo con plumas aqui. Yo lo llamaria echarpe.Con 75 piezas a la vista, y secciones sobre la historia, tecnica, tradicion e influencia en el arte contemporaneo, el tiempo paso rapido. Me llamaron la atencion los flecos de los rebozos, que se hacen por otras artesanas las empuntadoras. Algunos son tan delicados como el mejor encaje. Otras fotos de la exhibicion aqui.

Por los pelos - Hairy ideas
Las ideas que menciona el articulo que acabo de leer, para hacer uso del pelo que perdemos diariamente.
Ioana Cioanca, una rumana que se ha tejido un vestuario completo : falda, sombrero,blusa, bolso, monedero, etc . Ronald Thompson un ex-peluquero que crea materiales mezclando pelos 
y hace muebles . Leila's Hair Museum, un museo en Missouri que muestra joyas, botones y otras piezas todas echas de este material. Parece ser que los victorianos eran muy aficionados a hacer joyas con el, como muestra la pagina web del Victorian Hairwork Society Website. Tambien hay artistas contemporaneos que lo utilizan para crear piezas, como mencionan aqui. Yo no se que pensar, la verdad, es algo tan personal.
