Sumpango Wall hanging by Ana Berta Cubur
Embroidery
26.5"x23.5"
This wall hanging is a tribute to the huipil, our traditional Maya attire that not only identifies us as Indigenous women but also weaves the story of the communities we belong to. Though some may choose to leave it behind, I believe it’s essential to keep wearing our huipil, as it carries the threads of our culture and the legacy of our ancestors. Inspired by its beauty and significance, I embroidered this piece so that people in other countries might come to know and cherish the rich heritage it represents.
