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 is made with colored yarns applied using a natural adhesive mixture of beeswax and resin over a wooden board.  It represents 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: “In this painting, there is the moon with the tree of the wind.  The Huicholes consider them sacred and the purest.  Also, there are offerings such as peyotes, an arrow with a deer horn, and a candle.  All offerings are sacred.”
