Huichol Artisan

Circle of Life Yarn Painting

$150.00

Bursting with color and spiritual symbolism, the Circle of Life Yarn Painting is a vivid work of ancestral storytelling by a Huichol artisan from the Sierra Madre region. Composed of hand-placed yarn pressed into a wax-coated wooden board, this 12 x 12-inch piece radiates sacred geometry, indigenous symbolism, and hypnotic design.
At the center, a trio of stylized corn stalks — one of the most sacred symbols in Wixárika tradition — is framed by ceremonial tools and surrounded by rings of green clovers, fire-like waves, and intricate linework. Each vibrant thread carries spiritual weight, often representing visions received during rituals, making the piece both decorative and devotional.
