Abstract
In this article, I discuss how the logic of Shipibo ancestral healing or Onanyabo, is internal to Shipibo culture, and that such a logic is explicated in the creation and curation of Shipibo art across transnational boundaries. Moving from the term ‘network’ to ‘meshwork’, I explore how Shipibo Onanyabo operates across ontological difference, bringing together diverse mediums and perspectives. I consider how we might come to envisage the Shipibo community through the perspective of a meshwork, through recourse to the curation of Shipibo art in New York contemporary gallery spaces.
