The rich heritage of Huichol art is rooted in ancient traditions, wherein Huichol shamans, under the influence of their sacred cactus, Peyote (hikuri), visualize images that are then transcribed physically into works of art. These artworks are meticulously crafted with beads or yarn and depict symbolic motifs, tales from Huichol culture, and legends of their cosmogony.
The Huichol yarn paintings are multi-colored masterpieces, with the yarn affixed to a wooden board using Campeche wax (beeswax). These paintings express the Huichol people’s visions, narratives, and religious beliefs experienced during their rituals.
TECHNIQUE: Huichol artists cover the entire wooden board with beeswax and meticulously attach strands of thread one by one, creating various drawings and symbols representative of their culture and traditions.
MAINTENANCE: Avoid direct exposure to heat or light to prevent discoloration of the yarns and melting of the Campeche wax (beeswax) adhesive. Clean delicately using a soft brush or air.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All paintings are handcrafted upon purchase. Therefore, minor variations in patterns from the images shown may occur, adding to the uniqueness of each piece.
