Vanishing Traditions: Textiles and Treasures from Southwest China
Showcasing wearable textiles and ornaments, this exhibition
displays the life, culture, and continuing loss of adornment
skills of the minority people who live in Southwest China. The
exhibition curator, Bea Roberts, shares her visually superb
collection, acquired during her early visits to the region, when
the villages were primarily intact in their cultural identity and
before the traditions vanish in today’s globalization race.
