The Huichol indigenous people have been an integral part of our region for centuries, with artisanal handicraft deeply rooted in their cultural heritage. Their intricate yarn and bead techniques have been passed down through generations, serving as a way to convey the legends and beliefs of the Huichol community.
Art is not just a form of expression for the Huichol, but also a form of prayer and a means to connect with the spirit world. Their artwork often features symbolic representations of figures central to their beliefs, such as trees, bears, armadillos, deer, coyotes, and peyote plants. In Huichol art, serpents are also a common motif, revered for their role in protecting crops and sacred plants from pests.
