Siapo art

Hey Bloggers,

For the last week, we have been working on our Siapo art or we could technically call them cloths. Siapo is the Samoan word for fine cloth and is made from materials such as bark from the Paper Mulberry trees, this can also be called masi. these are dyed and woven into a certain pattern usually to represent something important to them. These cloths are used as floor mats, bedding, room dividers, and clothing. I did a side by side comparison of a real siapo and the one I created. Have you done anything like this before?
