“Marassas Trois” Haitian Vodun Tapestry

This piece is an excellent example of the flags and banners of Haitian Vodun practice. It is constructed of silk cloth with hand-stitched glass beads and sequins, representing “Marassas Trois“, the triplets.

Vodun flags are meant to honor or invoke gods, as well as to depict their likenesses and attributes with dazzling displays of color. In addition, the beadwork may reference the African religious elements of Vodun.  The Marassa Twins/Triplets are powerful lwa in the voudou tradition, and if you are a twin, or have had twins in your family, you’re required to serve them.

The Marassa are also known as “twins of three” represent triple blessings such as faith, hope, and charity.  

This piece has been well preserved and framed with gallery glass to protect the work from de colouration.
