Uni is a travelling artist, tattooer and ayahuasca facilitator. He attended his first ceremonies with Deodomero Matios Maynas and Rosenda Flores in 2014 and started his apprenticeship with Maestro Don Enrique Lopez in 2018 to learn more about the Shipibo language and healing practices. During several art workshops with Mauro Reategui Perez, Amanda Sage , Alex and Allyson Grey as well as Autumn Skye. Uni learned how to portray his visions. He also studied Tibetan thangka painting with Sarika Singh and Master Locho in Dharamshala.

Uni Kaya met the Jochipapanete family in 2014 and has kept a good friendship with Maestro Deodomero and Maestra Rosenda ever since. In August of 2022 Uni co-created the first art and medicine retreat together with the Jochipapanete family which was so successful that it is now offered for the second time. Uni is a skilled and recognised artist and an experienced facilitator in the world of the Ayahuasca with a deep connection and respect to the Shipibo ancestral lineage. He has been studying the Shipibo language since 2018 and has done several dietas which help him to teach in an aligned way with the plants.

About the Retreat

Capture the creativity of your visions using a few simple visualization methods, create sketches and develop them into an acrylic painting supported by Uni. Our time will be balanced between creating and healing and is supported by breathwork and movement practices. This retreat is perfect for both experienced artists who want to explore their work through ceremony as well as someone who may have never painted before. We dive deep within ourselves to bring out what is already there and learn to open our eyes to the beauty within. Every brush stroke a prayer.
