Traditional Shipibo Skirt Shipibo Flower of Ayahuasca Tapestry Icaro Shipibo Alter Cloth Shipibo Artwork, Shipibo Cloth, 150 cm by 62 cm

This Shipibo Tapestry is measured 62 cm by 150 cm, a large weaving to hang on the wall or to cover an alter. Every plant has an Icaro, medicine song and this skirt as traditionally worn by the Shipibo-Konibo is covered in the Icaro of the Shipibo Design, with the Flower of Ayahuasca in the centre.

The Shipibo are Masters of Ayahuasca.  Ayahuasca is a Sacred Medicinal plant from the Amazon that when drunk, facilitates great healing. When a Maestro (shaman) drinks Ayahuasca to enable healing they will sing Icaros (Medicine Songs) to the individual seeking healing. In the spirit realm of this visionary plant these Icaros have a vibrational frequency that can be seen by the Maestro. The Shipibo Tapestries are the woven world of the world of Ayahuasca.

For generations the Shipibo have recorded the visions of Ayahuasca in handwoven Shipibo tapestries and used them as exchange for what the jungle did not provide, this cultural knowledge is the frequency of support offered to the women through this platform so they can continue to weave and live sustainably in the jungle as they always have.
