Origin of Huichol Art: The Huichol art form stems from an ancestral tradition of visually transcribing images envisioned by Huichol shamans. These visions, often induced by the ingestion of their sacred Peyote cactus (hikuri), enable them to venture into the unknown and establish a connection with the divine. Each piece of Huichol art, crafted from beads or thread (yarn), encapsulates symbolic motifs, stories, and legends of Huichol culture, offering an intriguing insight into Huichol society.

Elaboration Technique: The Huichol artist first covers the entire piece of wood with beeswax, creating a base. The strands of thread are then glued onto this base, one by one, until the painting is complete. Through this meticulous process, the artist portrays various drawings and symbols that are representative of Huichol culture and traditions.

Maintenance: To preserve the color of the yarns, avoid exposing this piece to direct heat or light, which may melt the Campeche wax (beeswax) adhesive. Cleaning should be done with a delicate brush or by using air.

Please Note: All paintings are handmade upon purchase, so you may notice minor differences in patterns from the images shown.
