HUICHOL RUG COLLECTION / TAPESTRIES by ELISSA MEDINA, MEXICO
A fun, spiritual, psychedelic wall or floor-piece, in the shape of an animal skin. Here felt charmingly replaces the animal fur. The piece refers to the Huichol (or Wixárikas), an indigenous people in Mexico, living in the Sierra Madre Occidental. In a religious and philosophical context, ‘huichol’ art expresses the connection between the gods and the profane. The Huichol are famous for their glass-bead artworks and also for their use of the Peyote cactus for medicinal and shamanistic rituals. In the pattern of the felt rug, we can see the peyote symbol. The PEYOTE CACTI symbolises life, sustenance, health, success, good luck, and the acquisition of shamanic powers. The symbol appears in most Huichol art and is considered a gift from the gods to the people to enlighten their lives and to create a mythical portal between the Gods and humanity. It also symbolizes the beginning of life and the balance of the world.
