These Angela pants by Kelly Dixon depicts the Papa Tjukurrpa (Dog Dreaming) at Mintjinperri, east of Kintore - Pintupi country owned by the Nungarrayi women, a site for women's business where they gather for ceremony. In this Tjukurrpa the dogs walk amongst the tali (sandhills) and puli (rocks), searching for kapi (waterholes), leaving footprints behind them. Today those footprints can still be seen in the sand. This Tjukurrpa was passed down to Kelly from her mother Alice Nampitjinpa Dixon, who received it from her mother Panaria Nungarrayi, from whose Country this story comes.
Kelly was born in 1970 at Lambara outstation west of Papunya and grew up at Haasts Bluff. She began painting for Ikuntji Artists in 2012 and has worked as an arts worker there, focusing on jewellery made from native ininti seeds and gum nuts.
High-waisted wide-leg pants with belt loops, front zip and button closure, and deep side pockets. A lightweight cotton linen blend with a natural drape.
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 or hand wash, drip dry in shade, warm iron. Avoid tumble dryer and dry cleaner.
