The Xao Kené Spiritual Armor Dress features Xao Kené, a sacred geometric motif inspired by the bone structure of the paiche fish, one of the most powerful and revered beings of the Amazon. In Shipibo-Konibo tradition, Xao Kené symbolizes strength, protection, and resilience, functioning as a form of spiritual armor.
The design is a versatile hand-painted print, translating ancestral geometry into a contemporary printed form while honoring the original visual language of the Shipibo-Konibo people. Each piece carries subtle variations, reflecting the artisanal process and the intention behind the work.
