This bag was made by Kravan House, our partner social enterprise that has been employing, training and supporting disabled artisans in Cambodia since 2003. It is one of Cambodia’s oldest social enterprises.
Please note that each bag is unique and the placement of the fabric design is different and wonderful on each item.

Design: Seed Dreaming
The Jukurrpa is associated with a place called Jaralypari, north of Yuendumu. Lukarrara is a species of Fimbristylis, a grass that bears edible seeds in the winter. The seeds are traditionally ground to make flour. This flour is mixed with water (‘ngapa’) to make small seed cakes. In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, particular sites and other elements. In paintings of this Jukurrpa large concentric circles are used to represent Jaralypari and dots surrounding these circles are often depicting the ‘ngurlu’ (edible seeds).”
Art centre: Warlukurlangu Artists is a non-profit, fully Aboriginal owned arts corporation located in Yuendumu in remote Central Australia. Yuendumu is 300 km north-west of Alice Springs.
