Cushion Cover - Mitjili Napurrula - pink (medium)
Brighten up your living room with these beautiful pure wool cushions. They are handcrafted using a technique called Gabba. The ancient technique of chain-stitches a traditional Kashmiri handicraft is important to the local economy. This work is produced in remote villages and provides an important supplementary income between harvests and other rural work.
Mitjili paints the Watiya Tjuta tree. Mitjili's style is unique and recognisable. The Watiya Tjuta in Mitjilis paintings is her father's Tjukurrpa (dreaming) in Ilyingaungau country (Gibson Desert). This was passed down to her by her mother, Tjunkayi Napaltjareri when story telling, using the same to draw the story as it is told in the traditional way. She remembers. After I got married, my mother taught me my father's Tjukurrpa in the sand, that's what I'm painting on the canvas, a women's interpretation.
