Barrina South's choice of women's weavings from the Australian Museum's collection. 36 items from Australia, the Pacific and North America. The 1905 weaving from Bloomfield river is an amazing link to the present as anyone who has seen Wilma Walkers contemporary weavings will testify. Ms. South notes that the weaving is unfinished. Maybe it is not. Wilma would know. <a href=" http://www.isx.org.au/projects/1098346362_13928.html "> This is why Balkanu's traditional knowledge project is of vital importance to our heritage.</a> The exhibition is not to be missed.
