One of Twelve Silk Scarf 'Kampagee' by Margaret Baragurra
Sold
In Kampagee a dark background is interrupted by bright forms of electric green dotting outlined in crimson red. For Mrs M Baragurra, the image evoked powerful memories of her country in the wet season, when rich colours abound and there is an abundance of food. Of the painting, the artist said:
“My country Kampagee, we been walking around, I been born there. I am little one walking around Nanarra. Lots of jila, warla (mud flat). Old people country blood country, sad one you know. He been lost there my uncle everyone been lost there my grandfather too.”
100% silk satin with hand rolled edges.
All scarves come in a beautiful giftbox and include an artist's card, detailing the artist's work and practice.
