Stunning Cat Mola - Very Finely Executed - Collected by Ann Parker and Avon Neal. An absolutely superb mola, this piece combines gorgeous design, wonderful color and impeccable cutting and sewing. The base layer has worn through in a couple of place -- which could easily be "fixed" by mounting and/or framing it. A wonderful, wonderful mola. 22" x 16" Collection of Ann Parker and Avon Neal . Molas. Folk Art of the Cuna Indians , is one of the most important mola books ever written. Ann Parker and Avon Neal were a couple who teamed together to write a number of books on folk art. They made numerous trips to the San Blas Islands, starting in 1965. Their focus was on "story telling" molas, with a particular emphasis on acculturated molas that found their inspiration in western culture -- magazine ads, billboards and comic books. I have the privilege of helping Ann Parker sell a number of the molas from their collection. Kuna Art Society Web Site.
