Aboriginal Art Cushion Cover by Nina Puruntatameri (2)

CUSHION COVER WOOL 40cm

These beautiful, unique textiles are a cross -cultural collaboration combining Aboriginal designs and tradional Kashmiri handicraft. The chain-stitched (Gabba in local Kashmiri) cushions are hand stitched by

rural folk in remote villages in one specific region of Kashmir. Over generations they have honed their skills and refined their hand crafted produce. Only the most skilful artisans can faithfully reproduce the images we send to them. Aboriginal artists in remote regions in Australia, as well as others living in the cities, benefit from regular royalties paid monthly, as well as using these products to tell other people about their rich cultural heritage.

The Kulama ceremony was given to the Tiwi people by the Nyingawi, who are little spirit people (as depected in Tiwi mythology). It is a celebration of life and food, occuring at the end of wet season. The Tiwi know when to perform Kulama when the last full moon of the wet season has a yellow halo surrounding it, which tells them the Japurra (the moon man) is ready for it to begin.
