The Cungelella Rug

This is a very special rug design, in collaboration with 'Cungelella Art' "The title of this piece is kalkatungu country. We paint our traditional homelands heavily focusing on the landscape because it is very special to us, this country is where our father and our mother call home, we were raised here and its where we are raising our children also. I remember as a child always being surrounded by Aunties and uncles and now reliving fond memories of our numerous bush trips piled into the back of our 11 seater troop carrier, camped under the stars, eating bush tucker, and listening to family sing around the camp fire. This country is very rough and rugged, the heat has twisted and folded back on itself and the ochres have been pushed up from the depths with gold and silver and many other minerals which gives us the most unique mineral belt in the world.
