Fold out style Christmas Star with Toggle closure. By Better World Arts
Handpainted in India, with Royalties paid to Australian Indigenous/First Nation Artists, by Paulina Puruntatameri
During ceremony on the Tiwi Islands a series of ‘yoi’ (dances), are performed; some are totemic and show a narrative of newly composed songs. Participants in these ceremonies are painted with turtiyanginari (the different natural ochre colours), transforming the dancers and, in some cases, provide protection against mapurtiti (spirits). These significant artistic designs collectively are called ‘Jilamara’.
