The design for this rug is from an original acrylic on canvas. The style of art known as ‘walka’. The abstract images, enclosed within a boarder, are typical of this style which is unique to the Aboriginal women artists of the Pitjantjatjara/Yankunytjatjara Lands in remote, north-west South Australia. The natural environment influences the images used in Walka work. Animals, flowers and land formations are commonly depicted in the artists’ work.
