Each colour represents a different community around the world and it has been woven into a net design to show how the world is interconnected.
In 2019, with nearly 200 women from the crocheting association established in her village by Lorena Ron, they broke a world record for the longest crocheted canopy.
Lorena Ron says the crocheted hanging represents 100 mothers of Mexico hugging the country they love.
The weave is made using a type of plastic which is malleable and weather resistant.
In a small town in west Mexico, 100 women, led by Lorena Ron, spent more than 5,200 hours crocheting 3,500 individual pieces that make up the eye-catching exterior of the Mexico Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai. All photos: Khushnum Bhandari / The National
