Origin of Huichol Art: Huichol art is an ancestral tradition, a physical manifestation of images visualized by Huichol shamans following the ingestion of Peyote (hikuri), their sacred cactus. This allows them to journey into the unknown and connect with the divine. Each artwork carries symbolic motifs, stories from Huichol culture, and Huichol cosmogonic legends, providing a window into the rich tapestry of Huichol society.
Elaboration Technique: A Huichol artist covers the entire wooden piece with beeswax. Then, strands of thread are individually glued until the painting is complete. In crafting these artworks, the artist incorporates various drawings and symbols representative of their culture and traditions.
Maintenance: Avoid exposing this piece to direct heat or light to prevent discoloration of the yarns, as this could melt the beeswax adhesive. Cleaning should be done with a delicate brush or air.
Important Note: All paintings are handmade upon purchase. Therefore, minor differences in patterns from the images shown may occur.
