The textile articles sold by Aussie Products as being of Australian Aboriginal origin began life as paintings. These are then transposed onto a range of fabrics, some of which are sold as yardage, some as quilting pre-cuts, while others are transformed into headgear, home-wares and scarves and ties.

The designs are all attributed to the original artists, and they benefit from the sale of articles made from fabrics bearing their designs.

Artist Bio

Artist Name: Janet Long Nakamarra

Dreamtime: For the Aboriginal People of Australia, their country is more than a place to live. Every mountain, river, waterhole, tree, animal, etc. are part of their dreaming. Per the Aboriginal dreaming, it is believed that all these things were created by their ancestors, who live in the five elements of nature: air, land, water, sky, and fire. Different countries have different languages so are differing traditions and rituals. Aboriginal people strictly follow an unwritten law of caring for the land, animals, bush, etc. of their country, to pass them on to newer generations. Often, a place with rock art, waterhole, and wild bush, is referred to as a Creek were the Aboriginal women gather to either find food, fetch water or perform a ceremony or a ritual. The artists engrave their dreamings on mountains and/or rocks as a message to future generations and also to develop their skill. Janet Long Nakamarra comes from the Utopia region of Central Australia. She belongs to the Nakamarra family and speaks the Anmatyerre language. Her dreamings mainly involves Fire Dreaming, Underground Water, Sandy Creek.
