Ayahuasca. 2024

This dynamic image portrays the mystical ritual of a retreat centered around the use of a sacred brew traditionally employed in shamanic practices. The central female figure embodies all those who have entrusted themselves to the spirit of Ayahuasca. The painting captures not only the ritual itself but also the profound idea of spiritual unity with nature, which opens the path to inner transformation.

Vines intertwined from the letters of the word “AYAHUASCA” are depicted with human features: they gently embrace the woman while simultaneously absorbing her. This symbolizes the merging with the spirit of the plant — a state often described by participants of such retreats. The background, filled with swirling violet and white currents, reflects the altered state of consciousness achieved during the ceremony. Ayahuasca penetrates the mind, revealing insights and deep truths, leaving an indelible mark on one’s thoughts, remaining within them forever.
