The tradition of Wixárika Huichol bead art is deeply rooted in the cultural heritage of the Wixárika people of western Mexico. This complex art form involves applying small glass or plastic beads to a surface using beeswax or resin as an adhesive. The designs employed are often symbolic, reflecting the spiritual beliefs and cosmology of the Wixárika people.
IMPORTANT NOTE: We recognize that the commercialization of Wixárika bead art has raised issues of cultural appropriation and exploitation. We are committed to honoring the artisans’ work and their rich cultural heritage and ensure proper compensation for their expertise and effort.
