I am very excited to announce the pre launch of a great collaboration with Artistic Flooring. After many years of offers to partner with companies that make rugs & flooring I believe this range from Artistic Flooring is the best the industry has to offer.

From the quality of the manufacturing, the range of designs & the range of sizes  these rugs represent my art and stories beautifully.

The Nylon rugs are hard wearing and the printing technique allows for a literal translation of my artwork. 


Waterholes

Sarrita paints the naturally occurring waterholes she remembers travelling around Alice Springs and Katherine. The scarcity of drinking water in certain regions means specific knowledge of where these waterholes are located, as well as their preservation methods, is paramount to survival. Today, Aborigines speak of where waterholes once were as many of them have dried up due to drought or diminished maintenance. When Sarrita traveled to see the waterholes with her father she saw many of them dried up and this is what she paints. Represented by the concentric circles, the waterholes are fed by underground streams pushing through land and rock. Sarrita shows these streams by ribbons of wavy lines intricately entwined across the canvas.
