Collection: Olinda Silvano - Peru - Shipibo Art

Olinda is a strong woman with a big heart, with her art and her message she represents Peru and her indigenous Shipibo culture around the world. Through her advocacy and leadership she works with her community to maintain their ancient culture within a modern, urban setting.

These designs are the materialization of the visions, cosmology, and language of Olinda’s Shipibo-Konibo community interpreted through the ritual of Ayahuasca. The intricate patterns are embroidered or painted with living dyes derived from the forest soil and the bark of ancient trees. Each piece expresses Shipibo cultural beliefs and their connection to nature and energy through sacred symbols such as the Ayahuasca flower, the path of the anaconda, and the mother's womb.
