[ ABOUT THE BOOK ] The Hidden Threads of Peru: Q'ero Textiles Book by Ann Pollard Rowe | The book examines the textile traditions of the Q'ero, an indigenous community in southern Peru on the eastern slopes of the Andes. Their rich artistic tradition has endured from pre-Hispanic times. Woven from alpaca hair, Q'ero shawls, ponchos, bags and other textiles are still worn in daily life and play an important part in rituals and ceremonies. | Combining ethnography and anecdote, the book explores the fabrics and the culture of the people who make them. Q'ero people discuss the significance of their textiles and the nature of Andean life. Photographs dating from the early twentieth century to the present illustrate daily activities and rituals, alongside the textiles in colour. Together, these images show the range and evolution of patterns over a period of one hundred years, offering a visual record of Q'ero textile art and its continuing place in community life. (MP).
