Mareeya draws on her experiences growing up on country to inform her choice of themes in her work. In her younger years, Mareeya went out bush with her dad and uncles and learnt a lot about the changing Yawuru seasons. In her current work she is looking at Laja season (around October-November) when the wattle flowers are in bloom which also indicates that the brindany (stingray) are fat and good to hunt

They measure approx. 6cm in length with sage green leaves with white painted details and a yellow mirror blossom embellishment. They have a green mirror top. 

All our earrings are on stainless steel/nickel free findings. 

NAGULA JARNDU WOMEN’S ART & RESOURCE CENTRE

Nagula Jarndu (Saltwater Woman) is a Not for Profit incorporated body with a membership of 120 Indigenous women and is governed by 7 Yawuru women Directors.
Yawuru Jarndu first started operating in 1987 when it was established as an Indigenous women’s resource centre by Yawuru women, with the aim of recording oral history and preserving Yawuru language and culture.

The organisation evolved into an arts and textiles business, offering training in screen printing and dressmaking, producing fabrics for clothing and homewares, designed and made by local Indigenous artists. A retail outlet was established in 1998 called Nagula Jarndu Designs which proved a successful venture. Specialising in textiles, every piece of work is an original.
