| Sumario: | The paper examines how the association between plants and graphic arts led to the simultaneous patrimonialization of the Shipibo-Conibo kene designs and of the traditional use of ayahuasca by the Peruvian government in 2008. It describes the context of production and commercialization by women of kene objets and its link to immaterial designs seen in ayahuasca sessions and used in new shamanic paintings. It examines the notions of visuality, materiality and identity laid out in the kene patrimonialization report and compares them to the stress put upon health and the sacred in the ayahuasca report. Although they had several limitations, both cases state the changing character of designs and plant use and avoid drawing inventories and reifying knowledge and visionary practices. |
