Context:

This band's intense color and spider-web sheerness are remarkable. Both were achieved with a complex weaving technique developed nowhere else in the world. Each color area is essentially a small, independent textile linked to surrounding color areas through weaving rather than sewing, a puzzling feat that we do not yet completely understand. The image repeated in each of the band's rectangles is equally baffling-two little feet descend from an odd, head-like form.
