The women go here to tell stories and make lots of mai – food. There are three water holes in the middle of the painting.

CROSS CULTURAL PROJECTS - fine art - fine craft - ethical trade

We work with traditional artisans from remote regions in Kashmir, Peru, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh and Nepal (Tibetan refugees).

We work with Australian Aboriginal artists from remote communities across Australia, from Arnhem Land to Central and the Western Desert regions, from rural locations and from cities. Artists own the images used and it is up to them how they can be used.

Artists benefit from royalties paid to them on a monthly basis. Art centres benefit from a substantial profit share paid on their investments.

Artisans benefit by having culturally appropriate opportunities, they are able to supplement rural income by practicing age-old traditions in their own homes located in remote beautiful clean villages.
