This design by Mavis Nampitjinpa Marks shows the ‘Kalipinpa - Water Tjukurrpa (Dreaming)’ from north of Kintore. For Aboriginal people of the Western Desert, Kapi (water) is a crucial resource for survival. When the rains arrive in the desert the landscape comes to life with all the desert flowers blooming, bush tucker abundant and people taking advantage of all the joys that water brings.
Screen printed by hand in Australia. Available by the 50cm. Every purchase goes directly back to the artist and the community.
Make something with it. A dress. A cushion. Curtains. A piece of the Western Desert, made by your hands.
Every purchase from Ikuntji Artists goes directly back to the artist and the community of Haasts Bluff. Ikuntji Artists Aboriginal Corporation is 100% Aboriginal owned and governed—the first art centre in the Western Desert founded by women, for women, in 1992.
Recommended care instructions: Always dry clean for silk Dupion. Hand washing the fabric will cause it to lose that stiffness or crispness to the fabric.
