This scene by Maria Ramos is taken from childhood memories, as she recalls the liberated joy of the village???s riverside. Tiny stuffed dolls are tucked into the patchwork composition, offering a sense of animation and depth to the backdrop of greens and bold blues, warmed by a smiling sun. Ramos crafts the wall hanging by hand using strips of cotton and synthetic cloth, each detail imbued with cultural meaning. A simple and proud Peruvian accent for the home d???cor. Puerto Palmeras (literally “Port of the Palm Trees”) is located in northern Peru. 70% cotton, 30% synthetic.
