This "Everyday Blouse (Huipil)" from c. 1975, created by Christina Matzar, is a vibrant example of traditional Guatemalan textile art. The blouse is adorned with intricate geometric patterns and a rich palette of colors, including reds, greens, blues, and yellows. The use of geometric motifs, particularly zigzags and diamonds, is characteristic of the Huipil style. The blouse is currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcasing the beauty and artistry of indigenous textiles.
