The experience with sacred plants of connection is somehow an artistic experience, a spiritual endeavor that influences the behavior, that inspires and encourages creativity, for it creates other ways of perceiving, thinking and interpreting the world, and allows the understanding of the internal phenomena of each being-there. The use and knowledge of these plants goes back to a remote past. This text looks upon the Southwest of Colombia to describe the visionary-shamanic paintings of two indians from the Sibundoy Valley. Their shapes and colors, which are the result of the revelation and the knowledge of the invisible or sacred given by the master-beverage, the yage, are key to understand that, in their cultural context, these (re) presentations are a means that beautifies (is grateful and offers) life and thought.
