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: “The Huichol gives the offerings to the Peyote God such as an arrow, candle, and the magical feathers of the eagle.”
NOTE: Please keep in mind that this art was covered and taped with plastic for protection, so there are some sticky parts on the back.
