Our work is a collaboration between a Shipibo community of the Peruvian Amazon and us. Our clothing designs become the canvas of their magical patterns. Together we bring you a One of a Kind Piece of wearable art. This work is created while we are together in the village.

Shipibo artisans are known for depicting their ayahuasca based cosmology in the intricate designs of their luminous fabrics. We are proud to work and collaborate with authentic Shipibo embroidery inspired by ayahuasca visions and songs. These sacred geometric patterns are songs, prayers and blessings used to protect and armor the Body & the Spirit!

These patterns are more than an expression of the one-ness of creation, the inter-changeability of light and sound, the union or fusion of perceived opposites, it is an ongoing dialogue or communion with the spiritual world and powers of the Rainforest. The visionary art of the Shipibo brings this paradigm into a physical form. The Ethnologist Angelika Gebhart-Sayer, calls this “visual music”. (Howard G Charing)
