ABOUT THE ARTWORK:
Kunkurra, 2015 ©Janet Marawarr / Licensed by Copyright Agency. These images are not to be reproduced without the approval of the licensor.
This work depicts the kunkurra, the spiralling wind associated with several sites in the Kardbam clan.
The artwork has two stories. First, it shows the kinds of mini-cyclones common during the wet season in Arnhem Land. Secondly, Kunkurra relates specifically to a site called Bilwoyinj, near Mankorlod, on Janet’s husband’s clan estate. At this site, two of the most important Kuninjku creation beings, a father and son known as nakorrkko, are believed to have hunted and eaten a goanna. They left some of the goanna fat behind at the site, which turned into the rock that still stands there today.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Janet is a talented linocut and screen print designer. She regards textile design as an opportunity to work with colour and a new method to express her djang (ancestral creator stories).
As well as her artistic work with Bábbarra Women’s Centre, she works for the Maningrida Night Patrol, a community safety service.
Janet’s ancestor spirits are Mandjurlukkun (Wild black berries), and Dadbe (King brown snake).
ABOUT THE COLLABORATION:
We are incredibly proud to share the Kip&Co x Bábbarra collaboration. The Bábbarra Women’s Centre is based in Maningrida, Arnhem Land, and is governed by women, for women, to enable future enterprises that support healthy and sustainable livelihoods.
In 2018, Kip and Co received an invitation to collaborate with the artists and have spent the last two years working closely with this incredible group to create a collection that respectfully showcases their contemporary art, and tells the ancestral stories of Arnhem Land countries and cultures.
The partnership is best practice, and one that sets a benchmark for future collaborations. All profits are shared equally between Kip and Co and Babbarra, with 50% going to the Bábbarra Women’s Centre.
