A hat monument, a manifestation of a culture, colors of Africa, colors of Mozambique in southern Africa. This work represents the beauty of the Mozambican fabric and print, called capulana, in this photograph represented in a hat.
Capulana is a type of a sarong worn primarily in Mozambique but also in other areas of south-eastern Africa.
Capulanas have been in Mozambique since the establishment of the Arab/Indian trade routes. It was received from Indian traders as a means of trade for other goods. First, they came primarily in three colors: red, white, and black. White represented the protection of the ancestors, black represented evil, and red represented the spirit of war. less
