Description

This Aboriginal Art – Gloria Petyarre – Large Canister is a beautiful gift for housewarmings or to update your decor in the home.

These storage canisters are made from bamboo fibre and have a cork lid and they not only look great but are environmentally friendly too.

They are useful for food storage in the kitchen and also for storing all those bits and pieces in the home office, games cupboards, kids rooms and even the garage! Pair them with the Canister 15cm range to create a matching set.

Every canister provides the name and story of the artist on it’s base and lets customers know that the artist receives royalties for this product.

 

Care: These bamboo canisters are dishwasher safe but cannot be put in the microwave.

Measurements: 10.5cm (diameter – top) and 8.5cm (diameter – base). 15cm (height) and a volume of 750ml.

Material: Bamboo fibre, Corn Flour and Melamine.

Note: Bamboo fibre is an environmentally friendly material due is its ease and speed of growing and its biodegradability. However, products cannot be made out of bamboo fibre alone. There must be a material to help bond the bamboo fibres to hold the shape of the product and in almost all bamboo products on the market, this material is melamine. The quality of melamine can vary but rest assured that the melamine in these products is high-quality, food grade melamine. The percentage of bamboo fibre and melamine can vary a little but is usually around the 45% bamboo, 30% corn flour and 25% melamine ratio. Therefore, although these products are not 100% biodegradable they are still much better for the environment than full melamine or plastic products.

Royalties from this product go back to the artist and their community.

 

About the Artist and artwork

Leaves, Based on artwork, by Gloria Tamerre Petyarre.

Gloria Petyarre has participated in both group and solo exhibitions since the 1980’s. She has travelled to Ireland, London, Paris, USA, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries exhibiting her works. Her work is included in the collections of the Australian National State Galleries including the National Gallery of Australia, also the Powerhouse Museum Sydney, Westpac New York, Holmes á Court and many other private collections. In 1999 Gloria won the prestigious art award, the Wynne Prize, for the Best Australian Landscape.

Gloria first gained recognition in silk batik which began at Utopia in 1978 with exhibitions held nationally and internationally. In 1988 Gloria was part of the very first group to experiment with canvas, called the Summer Project, and Gloria has since continued to work in this medium.

Awelye, the women’s ceremonial body paint designs, was the subject of Gloria’s very first painting, she recalls. Over the years Gloria has applied many methods of enhancing the simple linear work in her Awelye paintings, including using sponges, hand work and a toilet brush.

One of Gloria’s most important Dreamtime stories is that of Arnkerrthe, the Mountain Devil Lizard. Arnkerrthe travelled over Gloria’s land creating all of the people, sacred sites, songs and other Dreamtime stories. In its neck it holds a sac of ochre that Gloria and her people use for ceremonies. Gloria has developed a very popular style for Arnkerrthe Dreaming that she calls the ‘swirly ones’. A unique design by Gloria, these swirls represent the thorny skin on the back of this gentle little lizard.

By far the most well known of all Gloria’s paintings is Leaves. In April 1994 at Mosquito Bore in Utopia, Gloria began doing something new on her canvas. ‘That first one. I was looking, looking. Looks like leaf, and I been put another one and another one and ‘ah yeah’. First leaf.’ (Gloria Petyarre).

Throughout the years this design has become more refined, leaves aren’t just scattered on the ground but rather picked up in swift passing zephyrs, entangled in whirls of wind and swept across the landscape. This life energy attributed to the success of Leaves, winning Gloria the very prestigious Wynne Prize in 1999, and highly recommended in 2004. The Wynne prize is awarded annually for the best landscape painting of Australian scenery or for the best example of figure sculpture by Australian artists. Gloria became the first Australian artist commissioned by Hermes, the international fashion brand based in Paris. Gloria’s Leaves design was selected by Hermes for their 2009 collection and was released internationally. The design features on Hermes’ silk scarves as one of its spring/summer 2009 collection with the theme ‘Invitation to travel’. Gloria’s design was titled ‘Le Reve de Gloria’ which means ‘Gloria’s dreaming’.

This Aboriginal Art Canister by Gloria Petyarre is packaged with information about the artist and artwork.
