Kieren Karritpul | Texere - New woven surfaces on fabric | 13 May – 27 May 2023
A new design collection for Melbourne Design Week by KIEREN KARRITPUL
The designs form an overall story of going out into the bush hunting for our food. For example, we use fishnets in waterways to catch fish, prawns and turtles. When we go out, I am reconnecting with the past and the ancestors – doing what they did, walking where they walked.
