FABRIC STORY 

This product was screenprinted by Yolŋu art workers at Bula’Bula Arts. We print small batches of tea towels, tshirts and fabric lengths by hand because we love putting Yolŋu designs on everyday items – especially ones that balanda (non-Yolŋu) use! Due to the lovely handmade nature of this product, print quality may vary.

 Available in four fabric designs and multiple vibrant colour combinations:

  • Dawurrmonuk (itchy caterpillar) by Evonne Gayuwrri
  • Lidjilidji (Crimson Finch) by Andrew Wanamilil
  • Lorrpu (Sulphur-crested Cockatoo) by Peter Gambung
  • Ngambi (limestone) spear by Shannon Ashley

WORKING WITH FLYING FOX FABRICS 

We work with Flying Fox Fabrics, a small social enterprise based in Darwin. Flying Fox Fabrics, make and sell accessories, clothing and homewares from fabrics designed by Aboriginal artists which have been hand printed in Australia. They work in partnership with Aboriginal artists and fair trade organisations in Cambodia that train and employ disabled artisans.
