Ceremonial Cloth

Cleveland Museum of Art

The "Ceremonial Cloth" by the artist is a long, narrow textile. The fabric features a predominantly brown and tan color scheme. The top and bottom edges of the fabric are frayed with loose threads. A tan border runs along the left and right sides. The main body of the fabric displays a repeating pattern of symmetrical designs. At the top, a section of small geometric shapes is visible. Below this, a large central motif is flanked by curved shapes on either side. This central section is repeated vertically, with each repetition featuring a square in the center. The bottom section of the fabric features a band of small geometric shapes. The background of the image is off-white.
