Better World Arts Cushion Cover Wool 40cm - KZI324

These beautiful, unique textiles are a cross-cultural collaboration combining Aboriginal designs and traditional Kashmiri handicraft. The chain-stitched (Gabba in local Kashmiri) cushions are hand stitched by rural folk in remote villages in one specific region of Kashmir. Over generations they have honed their skills and refined their hand crafted produce. Only the most skilful artisans can faithfully reproduce the images we send to them. Aboriginal artists in remote regions in Australia, as well as others living in our cities, benefit from regular royalties paid monthly, as well as using these products to tell other people about their rich cultural heritage.

The ancient Australian landscape with its eroded forms and organic shapes provides motivation for Keturah's art. In this work Keturah depicts the natural rock formations (puli) found in and around Haasts Bluff.
