Sara Flores is a Shipibo-Conibo artist from the Peruvian Amazon, where she lives and works. The Shipibo-Conibo people are the second largest Indigenous group of Peru. Flores’s paintings on tocuyo, a canvas made from wild cotton, expand on the Shipibo-Conibo visual language, known as kené. Traditionally, kené is practiced by women—through painting, embroidery, or weaving—and transmitted across generations according to a matrilineal principle, usually from mother to daughter. The intricate geometric designs of kené are not simply decorative; they constitute a visual language that embodies the Shipibo-Conibo’s worldview, their spiritual beliefs, and connection to the natural world. The practice of kené is the result of a delicate balance between a deferential engagement with ancestral cosmology and an imperative of personal innovation, which Flores excels at.
