I also noticed some new exhibits. Ceramics in the courtyard, a variety of bas-relief paintings but most striking of all is a display of feather mosaics, "paintings" that use hummingbird feathers instead of paint to create an image.
This picture is made from FEATHERS!I first heard about this art form when I was talking to Babs about Tlalpujahua. Apparently there is a very talented artist there that works in this medium. The form dates back to 500 BC!
But I wonder, where they get their feathers, are there some naked birds walking around somewhere????
Sadly I am guessing the answer to that question is not as charming as the pictures are.
Details in the feather mosaic.
