The art of Brazilian indigenous peoples is immensely rich. Among the most common artistic productions of these traditional peoples are body painting, ceramics, basketry, feather art, decorative pieces, work utensils, items used in traditional festivals, adornments, accessories, hunting and personal defense weapons, and musical instruments. The raw materials are sourced from nature, such as vines, leaves, bark, seeds, bird feathers, and animal teeth. The objective of this work was to analyze the richness of visual poetry and the artistic creation processes of some Brazilian indigenous peoples, with a focus on basketry.
