Nota de IA: wave15: compiled with AI assistance as original prose from cited public sources. Sensitivity: kusiwa is the central case in this archive for design that must never be used decoratively. The Wajãpi hold that the patterns were taught by spirits who remain their owners, and the archive therefore describes what kusiwa IS and what it MEANS without reproducing any pattern as ornament anywhere on this site. No individual motif is transcribed, redrawn or offered as a downloadable asset. Body painting is described as a practice; no photograph of a painted person is published without attribution and consent recorded in the media record.
