Alice Nampitjinpa Dixon's design is printed on this wrap dress, which depicts the trees of Talaalpi - Alice's own Country, situated close to Kintore on the Western Australian border, where she grew up before moving to Haasts Bluff later in life.
Alice was born in 1943 near Talaalpi, close to Walungurru on the Western Australian border, and taught dancing and desert traditions at Kintore School before she began painting. Her father was the late Uta Uta Tjangala, one of the original Papunya Tula painters.
A wrap dress with a V-neckline and attached waist tie. Tie at the side or wrap around the body to create a belt - the fit adjusts to you.
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 tumble dryer and dry cleaner.
