Abstract

The mural that concerns this a.rticle, a.nd which describes the "mystery and travei ofthe three sacred spirits" encloses a tale in images ofthe huichol cosmogony.lt is a wonderlul work of art, composed by eighty squares of 90 em. each, made entire l y in chaquira (tiny colored glass beads) glued individually to the boa.rd with bee wax from Ca.mpeche. In the mural we can simultaneously see the here and now, the yesterday, and the tomorrow of the huichol people, in a visua l a.rrangement that articulates the images with the inherent concepts of their mythology, thus generating a unique mea.ning for both the work o f a.rt, and the mystic pri n cipies that rule the wirra.rita.ri lives.
