This 20th-century "Panel" by an unknown Kachin artist is a vibrant example of textile art from Southeast Asia. The piece features a striking combination of red, black, and gold, with intricate patterns woven into the fabric. The use of geometric designs and bold colors is characteristic of Kachin weaving traditions, often used in garments and ceremonial objects. The panel, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcases the rich cultural heritage of the Kachin people.
