Description

This Audrey top by Walter Jugadai depicts the Star and Shield Tjukurrpa - his grandfather's Dreaming, passed down to him from his grandfather whose Country is Yarapilangu, near New Haven, north-west of Papunya. Walter was born in Alice Springs in 1983 and grew up at Haasts Bluff, learning to paint from members of the Namatjira family. He has represented Ikuntji Artists in Korea, Germany and Switzerland and has served as a director of Ikuntji Artists and Desart Inc.

This is my secretive tradition men's story which tells of events which happen at a place called Yarapilangu, near New Haven, north-west of Papunya. I got this story from my grandfather.

A fitted top with flared mid-length sleeves, a boat neckline, tailored darts and a long waistline. Pairs equally with a pencil skirt, trousers or jeans.

Hand-screen printed in Australia. This is not fashion inspired by Aboriginal art. This is Aboriginal art, worn.

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.

Care: Cold gentle machine wash, drip dry in shade, warm iron. Avoid the tumble dryer and dry cleaner.
