Santa Monica had much to do with the sacred vestments of the church in Goa.
The same tradition was continued in Canara for a long time because Goan
priests were in churches here. Later, in recent years it shifted to a
couple of the local convents, cloistered and others. After the 1960s the
style and cloth changed because of Vatican II reforms and a lot of woodwork
and vestment-making took new shape. Much came from outside Canara. For
example, many priests removed earlier woodwork of alters and put marble in
their place diminishing the art value of the church vestments and alters
and buildings. Walls and facades were shifted from granite to concrete. I
have done extensive study on St Lawrence Church, Attur-Karkala in Canara, a
very successful pilgrim centre for all, Christians and all other religions
but I do not know of any study elsewhere in Canara. Much art in statues and
vestments of Goan origin remains.
