The Arhuaca Mochila Bag is more than a functional accessory; it is a profound symbol of life, tradition, and cultural identity for the Arhuaco people. Crafted with deep spiritual significance, the bag represents the feminine womb—a sacred space where life is nurtured and preserved, bridging the spiritual world and daily life. For the Arhuaco, continuing this craft honors the legacy of their mother, Ati Nabowa, the creator of textiles, and ensures the preservation of their cultural heritage.

The art of Arhuaco weaving embodies more than creation; it is a timeless transmission of thoughts and knowledge, deeply rooted in their worldview. Deeply connected to Mother Nature, the Arhuaco dedicate themselves to protecting and teaching the importance of life preservation.
