Darwin and the Aboriginal Art Fair

Darwin and the Aboriginal Art Fair
 
I have decide to go to the Darwin Aboriginal art fair, trying to find indigenous textile art is easier said than done………however as the company is called Textiles of the World, and based in Australia I feel that it is important to include aboriginal textile art in the collection.
 
So off on the Darwin adventure………

 

The Art fair began in 2007 to provide an opportunity for aboriginal owned and incorporated art centres to market the works of the artists that they represent.

When I walked in the hall it was like a magic carpet ride, colour and movement at every turn……..it was wonderful….
