The Symbolism of the Earth and Life in Art

Creativity isn’t just about creating something new; it’s about finding the thread that connects what we have been with what we can be. At 6 Herencias, each collection reflects the symbolism of the earth and life in art, where the colors, shapes, and symbols are not chosen at random but serve a purpose: to preserve a collective memory and transform it into something tangible, as our capes and jewelry have done in 6 Herencias.

The symbolism of the earth and life in art

The creation process of our garments and jewelry begins with a deep exploration of the symbolism of the earth and life, essential elements in the worldview of diverse cultures. Inspired by the Kamëntsá community and pre-Columbian jewelry, each design has a meaning: the lines represent paths, the circles speak of cycles, and the colors reflect the connection with nature, the earth, and life.

Connecting the Past and Present Through Art

It’s not just about making, but about telling stories. Each piece goes through a process where craftsmanship and contemporary design intertwine to create objects that transcend aesthetics and become a bridge between the past and the present. From the sketch to the final piece, we strive for everything to have meaning, for every thread, every stroke, to speak of the earth and life, reminding us that everything in nature is interconnected.

This Creativity Week, we celebrate not only the act of creating, but the intention behind each work. Because art is not just what we see, but what we feel when we connect with it and with our natural environment. From there comes an act as simple as creating from within, not from the outside in, seeking to make authenticity the main pillar, something that only you experience.
