Applique wall hanging, 'At the Beach'

Swimming, drifting on beach toys and sailing Hobie Cats, vacationers enjoy the Peruvian seashore. Whole families kick off their sandals to sunbathe or picnic on the beach beneath a sunny sky. Working in the traditional art of arpillería (patchwork), Marcela Paredes creates a wall hanging of exquisite detail. Each tiny figure is crafted in three dimensions and lavishly embroidered.
