Tjanpi Desert Weavers

Profit from sales support this Aboriginal owned and governed organisation.

Making strong work with a strong heart - Katangku kuruntu kulira kunpu palyanma.

Tjanpi Desert Weavers' vision is to improve the lives of NPY women and their families by supporting cultural activity, income generation and employment through the creation of fibre art. At its core, Tjanpi embodies the energies and rhythms of the country, culture and community, empowering 400 women across a 350,000 square kilometre area of the tri-state region of NT, SA and WA.


Tjanpi sculptures are made from a combination of native desert grasses, seeds and feathers, commercially bought raffia (sometimes dyed with native plants), string and wool. Tjanpi means wild grasses.


Amy is a talented emerging artist from Amata in SA. Her grandmother is Edie Curtis who inspired Amy to begin creating Tjanpi sculptures.
