Biil doo Beeldlee’
( Woven dress & Manta)
Manta: I used the double- faced weaving technique to show both the natural black and hand dyed indigo colors. The technique allows decorative patterns to appear on both sides of the weaving.
Dress: This biil is an old style dress worn by Navajo women. Today they are only worn during special occasions.
