Hermès scarf L' Arbre du Vent in Fuchsia Colourway - Montserrat Gonzalez-Lugo | Jewellery designed by CloudWei.C

L’Arbre du vent, designed by Montserrat Gonzalez-Lugo (Instagram account: monetlugo) for Hermès’ Autumn/Winter 2015 collection.

As described in the Hermès catalogue: L’Arbe du vent is a tribute to the Huichol people of Mexico’s western Siera Madre – also known as the Wixáritari – and their polytheistic religion, worshipping the divinity inherent in every aspect of the natural world. At its centre, the scarf depicts the eye of God, the protector, surrounded by the four elements, marking the four corners of the Huichol world: Mother Water, the origin of life, Tatei Haramara; Earth, the soul of the world, Tatei Yurianaka, with two hummingbirds fluttering above, symbolizing the souls of traditional shamans; Grandfather Fire, Tatehuari, and Air, Kieiri, the Wind Tree. Mexican artist Montserrat Gonzalez-Lugo has taken inspiration from traditional bead embroideries and threaded wool pictures to depict the essence of Huichol spirituality.

Hermès Scarf Kachinas | Part 1 - The Rare and Well-known Kachinas

Kachinas’ Identities Note: This article is an in-depth follow-up to “Kachinas Identities” ( Part1 , Part2 , and Part 3 ) previously posted on my Instagram account: cloudwei.C on January 8th, 9th and 10th, 2020.
