The videos presented on this page will be delivered by www.blip.tv. You will be directed away from www.mexicantextiles.com and can return using the back arrows.The object of these videos is to give the viewer a sense of the traditions that are related to the textiles. The festivals are both Catholic and traditional beliefs. In general I do not add voice over , maybe some subtitles,I do this because I do not want to interpret the events but rather give the viewer a "feel for the momment.
