Anapalayaku Walka / Ernabella Design
$1,093.00
This work speaks to the history of Ernabella Art Centre, located in Pukatja community – the first permanent settlement on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands (APY Lands).
Established in 1948, Ernabella Arts is Australia’s oldest, continuously running Indigenous Art Centre. It’s located at the eastern end of the Musgrave Ranges in the far north west of South Australia. The Presbyterian Board of Missions established the mission in 1937 and created a craft room in 1948. The first objects to be created were hand-loomed woven fabrics, hand-pulled/knotted floor rugs and Batik textiles. The works made during this period produced a unique design/pattern that became known as ‘the Ernabella walka’ or Anapalayaku walka (Ernabella’s design).
Many artists from Ernabella still make art depicting Ernabella Walka, especially artists who have been working in the studio since the early days.
