Earth Images - Tarisse King

The Stylish but Explosive felt, 'Earth Images' is a Vibrant yet strong Woven Backed Hand Tufted New Zealand Wool Custom Rug that offers a Premium feel underfoot and can be used to bring a surge of energy to any area. Particularly great for a resort or rural bar.

Common to Aboriginal practice, Tarisse was handed down the Earth Images style to paint by her late father, William King Jungala. It is a macro view of land around the small remote town of Katherine, the area where her Gurindji tribe once inhabited. It details meandering rivers, small tributaries, active and abandoned campsites.

The impact of strong colour is immediate in these artworks and the canvas is starkly broken by the dominant and contrasting lines mapping waterways cutting their way through the land. By concentrating her background dots or placing them sparingly Tarisse manages to create a 3-D effect of landscape, as if one was seeing all the formation from a bird's eye view.

Available in one size.
