This painting is entirely made with yarn applied with beeswax and resin over a sheet of plywood. There’s a description of the painting written by the artist in the back that reads. In this painting you’ll see a representation of the birth of our deities. The huichol tribe has it origins in the sea, or “haramara”. In the begging everything was dark and there was no light, so they brought a child to throw it to the fire and that’s how the sun was born. Today the sun is represented by the deer in the rituals and it has to be fed. It’s our grandfather, the one that guides us and grants us life and light so we can see. Signed by Kükame Olegario Carrillo. In this painting you’ll see a representation the marakame, the deer, the eagle the peyote cactus and the sun. The marakame or Shamans are the spiritual leaders. As ambassadors to the gods, shamans preside over ceremonies, recite the divine passages, cure the sick, interpret dreams, etc. He is the nexus with the gods, invoked through the ceremonial use of peyote, and receives instructions from the spirit world through visions, dreams and trances. The peyote cactus or “Hikuri”, is a plant that the huichol people keep as their most sacred good used it to open a spiritual connection with their gods. Peyote is the soul of their religious culture and a visionary sacrament that opens a pathway to the other deities. The Huichol believe the deer or Kauyumari represents the heart and is the gatekeeper and guide to the spirit world. The spirit guide Kauyumari, who leads the shamans on their visionary pathways and teaches them how to gain their special knowledge. The sun brings light and illumination to the world. Tayaupa is father sun, master of the heavens, and his wife is the Eagle, mother of the sky and goddess of life. The Huichols believe all living things receive their power from the sun, and that He guarantees healthy crops and abundant food. The eagle represents the communication bridge between god and men. The Huichol represent one of the few remaining indigenous cultures left in Mexico. They live in self-imposed isolation, having chosen long ago to make their home high in the mountains of the Sierra Madre Occidental, in Western Central Mexico. Huichol Art dates back millenia. During spiritual rituals the shaman (know as marakame) have visions which are then transcribed into carvings, yarn art, bead art, pottery etc. Each image has spiritual meaning. The huichol tribe uses many simbols as representations of their deities and other things they deem sacred in their culture. Most common ones are the peyote, the deer and the snake.
