Description
Artwork
Mitjili paints the watiya tjuta tree. Mitjili’s style is unique and recognisable. She paints her father’s country at uwalki. Her mother, Tjunkayi Napaltjarri taught her these motifs when story telling, using the same to draw the story as it is told in the Traditional way.
These cushion designs combine original artwork from Australian Aboriginal artists with the fine quality handicrafts from the remote Himalayan region of Kashmir.
The hand chain stitched cushion covers are made in Kashmir by small craft-based enterprises in a cross-cultural project with Australian Indigenous artists. Australian and New Zealand wool is custom dyed to match the original artists image and hand stitched onto a cotton base. Each cushion is backed with cotton canvas and closes with buttons.
Please note: Cushion fillers are not included and as the cushions are hand stitched each design has unique variations.
