Make it Real Bag Charm by Rona Bin Hitam

Garra Gangji (Shell skeleton)  

In Baard Language and Culture there is a distinction between the creature that lives in the shell and the Shell skeleton. The Garra Gangji is what’s left over when you eat the animal inside, or the animal dies and the Garra Gangji washes up on the beach. We collect live shells to eat and keep the shell skeletons.

Make it Real

Make it Real is a project delivered through the Aboriginal Art Centre Hub of Western Australia (AACHWA). As a not-for-profit Aboriginal organisation, our profit story ensures the artist receives the economic benefits of their shared generational stories and culture. When an artist thrives, their community also benefits.

The profits generated from this product give 90% back to the artist and 10% back to their art centre. 

*The way profits are distributed can vary, and we ask consumers to be mindful of this when buying Authentic Indigenous Art or products.
