“Origin of Huichol art”
The origin of Huichol art lies in an ancestral tradition, the physical transcription of the images visualized by the Huichol shamans; induced by the ingestion of Peyote (hikuri), his sacred cactus, which allows them to cross the threshold of the unknown and thus relate to the divine. These Huichol works of art are made with beads or thread (yarn), each carrying symbolic motifs, stories of the Huichol culture and Huichol legends of their cosmogony that offer us a panorama of Huichol society.
The making of the Huichol stamen tables are true multicolored stamen paintings, the stamen is glued with Campeche wax (beeswax), where the Huichols express the visions they have during their rituals, their stories and religion.
Tables of yarn.- Such compositions expose deep mythological themes of this Mesoamerican ethnic group. It is about thresholds to glimpse the hermetic universe of the deities of the deep Mexico according to the perspective of the Huichol indigenous people. The Huichol culture is guided by pre-Columbian shamanic traditions linked to ceremonies carried out in its historical past. The jicuri (peyote) is the centerpiece of Huichol ritualism, revered for its healing properties and its ability to illuminate whoever participates in it.
