The works were created by salvaging metal seat frames from remote motorcar graveyards and using them as free-form weaving frames. The sculptures take on the shape of the frames, warped and undulating. The process of weaving softens the form and imbues the work with the colours and stories of Country and culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical assistance provided by Puna Yanima \u0026amp; Jane Yai Yai.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tjanpi Desert Weavers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67617894236213,"sku":"482-23","price":3100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/0354\/7712\/files\/482-23_3.jpg?v=1791266728","url":"https:\/\/tjanpi.com.au\/products\/482-23","provider":"Tjanpi Desert Weavers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
