Details

Long, slender earrings more than three inches long come to life in black and white. At the top, triangles resemble arrowheads. Arrows belong to the shaman, or mara'akame, who is able to speak with the blue deer, brother of the Huichol people. Artisans from Mexico's Huichol Center for Cultural Survival and Traditional Arts craft their design by hand, meticulously placing each diminutive bead one by one.
