A stunning work of art for your floor that will bring any room alive. This work can also be hung on the wall!
This spectacular rug from Better World Arts features an Aboriginal design by artist Andrea Adamson.
The Design
This is the story of the seven sisters. The sisters fled from Wati Nyiru creating the country and landscape around Andreas home, Mala. They created the rockholes, sandhills and rocky outcrops as they tried to escape. The women flew up into the sky. Now, Wati Nyiru can be seen as Orion in the sky and the sisters are the Pleiades constellation.
The Collaboration
These beautiful, unique rugs are a cross-cultural collaboration combining Aboriginal designs and traditional Kashmiri rug-making techniques. Chain stitched, using hand dyed wool and finished with a heavy cotton backing, each rug is a completely handmade piece. This project is unusual because the rug is owned by the artists, rather than licensed to a third party. A more empowering way to work, this brings many direct benefits to the artists’ and their community. Control and ownership of intellectual property are also maintained. Purchase of these rugs guarantees a direct return to the Aboriginal artist and their community.
These rugs have non-slip backing and a sleeve for a hanging rod.
Rugs are made of wool and as these products are handmade, there may be minor variations in dye and design.
