Fabric + Form cushions feature hand screen printed fabric, produced by First Nations communities at art centres in outback Australia. The artwork is unique and tells the stories of the artists land and their people from many generations.
Each cushion is piped and upholstered with a matching woven fabric on the back.
Note - Each cushion is unique, with pattern placement varying from one to another. Slight colour variations may also occur due to the printing technique.

Story: ‘Sometimes when we go down to the beach in Maningrida we pick all these shells up. Some family make necklaces and earrings. In the olden days they used to collect shells and put them in the dilly bags. The old people used to carry dilly bags when they went hunting. They used the dilly bag for bush food. My design shows mud muscle and long bum and cockles.’ Belinda Kernan 2022
