These textiles are traditional to the Shipibo tribe of the Peruvian Amazon. The designs ("kene" in the Shipibo language) represent their indigenous cosmovision and the frequency of their medicine songs (icaros), which carry the spirit and medicine of the plants. These textiles are ceremonial and carry a unique healing power. For this reason they are often used on altars, ceremonially or admired hung on the wall. All telas are purchased personally directly from Shipibo artisans in Iquitos or Tarapoto, Peru. Your purchase helps support their livelihood and ancestral craft.
