An everyday object turned cultural heritage
For the Warao people of Venezuela, the hammock called chinchorro is essential. It accompanies travel, nights spent outside the village, and is part of life and death rites.
The making of chinchorros has been one of the main sources of livelihood for Warao families for centuries. Each piece is crafted by a single artisan, from raw fiber to final weaving.
Buying a moriche chinchorro directly supports the transmission of an ancestral know-how that is now threatened by industrialization.
