BWA Aboriginal Art Medium Cushion AAD777
The Artist is Andrea Mimpitja Adamson. The artwork tells the story of sisters that created the landscape as they tried to escape from Wati Nyiru. They created a rock hole which went under the ground and came up on the other side of the hill. The women dived into the water then flew up into the sky. Wati Nyiru followed them . Now, Wati Nyiru can be seen to the south of the seven sisters (the Pleiades), as he still chases them across the sky.

The Cushions:
These beautiful, unique textiles are a cross-cultural collaboration combining Aboriginal designs and traditional Kashmiri rug-making techniques. Chain stitched, using hand dyed wool, each is a completely handmade piece. This project is unusual because it is owned by the artists, rather than licensed to a third party. A more empowering way to work, this brings many direct benefits to the artists’ and their community. Control and ownership of intellectual property are also maintained.
Purchase of these products guarantees a direct return to the Aboriginal artist and their community.
As these products are handmade, there maybe minor variations in dye and design.
