Antlers of Kauyumari

Handmade indigenous artwork from the Wixárika (Huichol Tribe)

This one-of-a-kind yarn painting is crafted by the visionary Wixárika artist and mara-akame (shaman), Eligio Carrillo. Eligio’s yarn paintings hold profound spiritual significance, serving as Nierikas, or sacred doorways to the divine—each piece is a passage into the spiritual world as envisioned by the shaman.

Artist's Description: Symbol: This is where the deer, which is the peyote, is hunted. It is presented with antlers, because it is one of the ancient ones, so that the spirits of the people can be captured. This is what the peyote teaches: where the arrow is presented to direct another person — it is Kauyumari.
