Hand-made jungle art sold directly, at fair prices.
Global artisans
-
Most deep jungle Indigenous communities have a matriarchal multigenerational structure for producing handmade art.
-
Jungle art, artisans, and craftsmanship are an ancient form of trade conducted all over the world.
Natural materials
-
Most jungle art is made from natural materials in the jungle, that has significant cultural, ecological, and emotional significance.

Abuela swag
-
Jungle art is more than a style choice, it's a conscious decision to report Indigenous matriarchs in their area of mastery.
-
If you're proud of your art, then be sure and share your artisans page. Traditionally art curated by an elder is more valuable.
Non-profit
Our jungle art program is non-profit and primarily benefits women’s economies in deep jungle. Donate to support.
-
Jungle art is traditional trade for Indigenous communities and primarily benefits women who are usually excluded from initial payments for work on climate projects.
-
We only buy from artisans who are selling directly from the jungle using natural or traditional supplies.
-
We buy from artisans in cash at the rate they set in the community. Resell art with a QR code to their artisan page. If we get any extra revenue on resale, then 50% goes back to the artisan, and 50% is recycled back into the art program.
-
Jungle artisans typically experience a 100% to 800% percent markup on their goods in the city, and many city sales falsely take credit for the initial artwork. This program is to give credit where credit is due.
