The Origin of Huichol Art: Huichol art is born from an ancestral tradition, where shamans visualize images induced by the ingestion of Peyote, their sacred cactus. This visionary experience allows them to interact with the divine. The resulting art, created with beads or thread, carries symbolic motifs and stories from Huichol culture and cosmogony, offering a glimpse into Huichol society.
Elaboration Technique: The Huichol artist covers a wood base with beeswax, then meticulously glues strands of thread one by one until the painting is complete. This process results in a diverse range of drawings and symbols representative of their culture and traditions.
Maintenance: To prevent discoloration of the yarns, avoid exposing this piece to direct heat or light, as it may melt the beeswax adhesive. For cleaning, use a delicate brush or compressed air.
Please note: Each painting is handmade upon purchase, and minor differences in patterns from the images shown may occur.
