Reweaving Ancient Memory: Community Fashion in Oaxacan Mexico

This online talk is a journey into the world of traditional Oaxaca and the living world of indigenous community fashion.
Eric Mindling spent two years photographing the ancestral dressways of the splendidly diverse villages of this Mexican state. During this journey he searched for an understanding of the different meanings this clothing carried, what it communicated, how it spoke. While much of the symbolic meaning woven into traditional clothing has been lost, the cloth still whispers. In this visually stunning talk Eric shares stories from a land steeped in ancient knowledge.
