Colombian Wounaan Baskets

Carrying on tradition

The Wounaan people have resided on the banks of the San Juan River near Colombia’s Pacific coast for centuries, but recent territorial violence between several factions vying for control of the region has forced many to leave their ancestral homes.

Seeking refuge in Bogota, a group of Wounaan artisans formed the Wounaan Craft Group as a way of preserving their ancient traditions and supporting each other through the strife of their forced displacement.
