This delicate Huichol yarn hummingbird combines wood and textile artistry in perfect harmony. Each thread is hand-placed over beeswax, forming flowing patterns in soft gray, rose, and lilac tones that bring a sense of calm and gentle motion.
In Wixárika (Huichol) symbolism, the hummingbird is a sacred messenger. It represents love, energy, and the joy of life, often believed to carry prayers to the gods.
The floral motifs adorning its body stand for fertility and renewal, while the swirling lines evoke wind and spirit, vital forces in Huichol cosmology.
With its natural wood wings and pastel-colored yarn, this piece captures both spiritual grace and the lightness of flight.
