24.01.2022 Regina Pilawuk Wilson sorting through the recently harvested 'te' which is the source of the beautiful, vibrant and rich purple colour present within many of Du...rrmu Arts’ fibre artworks. First we sort it and clean it, and then we boil it with merrepen. We sort out the dry berries which give you a light pink colour, and then the ripe ones we squeeze into the water and boil it with the fibre and it makes purple. That's what we do." #purplecolour #te #weaving #fibreart #durrmuarts #makingcolours #merrepen #purple #keepingculturestrong #culturalmaintenance #reginapilawukwilson #NIMBI #NIMBIproject #peppimenarti
