I have lived in a village near pucallpa called "comunidad nativa retailer San Francisco" a village of Shipibo natives and I have been living with a local family for over 3 years. This fabric was made by one of the women of the family.
For hundreds of years the Shipibo tribe have been producing visual art, inspired by the rivers of knowledge of the sacred Ayahuasca plant.
The Shipibios, sustain this ancient art, as they are bringing life to cloth.
I meet these women, listen to their stories, visit their homes and pay respect to their impressive culture.
The fabrics are not merely an art, but they are invested with a story about a family and a tribe.
These fabrics preserve an ancient tradition that is endangered by modernism and industrialization, which are changing the territories and affecting the livelihood of tribes living in the rainforests.
The intention of this shop is to conserve, cherish, honor, and encourage the art of the proud Shipibios
Each item carries with it a story inspired by the healing plants of the jungle.
