Wixárika Huichol bead art is a traditional art form practiced by the Wixárika people of western Mexico. The intricate process involves applying small glass or plastic beads to a surface, like a wooden or gourd object, using beeswax or resin as adhesive.

The designs in Wixárika bead art are symbolic, reflecting the cosmology and spiritual beliefs of the Wixárika people. Common motifs include depictions of the sun, moon, stars, and sacred animals like deer and snakes.

Colors in Wixárika bead art have symbolic meaning as well. Blue represents the ocean and sky, while green signifies the earth and the natural world.

Creating Wixárika bead art is time-consuming and labor-intensive, taking hours or even days to complete. The art form has gained international recognition and is now sold in markets and galleries worldwide. However, it is crucial to be aware of the commercialization of Wixárika bead art, leading to cultural appropriation and exploitation, with some profiting from the art without proper acknowledgement or compensation to the Wixárika people who originated it.
