inspired by molas, the traditional handmade textiles of the Kuna women of Panama, which use a reverse appliqué technique. Using superimposed and cut pieces of paper, students will create a work of art that reveals different colours and shapes based on the layers of paper exposed by the cut. The largest pattern is typically cut from the top layer, and progressively smaller patterns from each subsequent layer, thus revealing the colours beneath in successive layers. The more layers of colour, the more difficult the project.
