Description
This Yarn Art is a one-of-a-kind art created by the indigenous Huichol people of Nayarit, Mexico. It is known as Nierikas and made with colored yarns applied using a natural adhesive mixture of beeswax and resin over a wooden board representing the visions of the Huichol shamans during the ritual ceremonies.
There is an extensive description on the back written by the Huichol artist.
The description: “It is the sacred peyote called Hikuri that symbolizes the deer god. Sikuri (Eye of God) also represents a sacred place called the Wirikuta and the arrows represent the four cardinal points.”
