The Australian Tapestry Workshop has been working since the 1970s to preserve the ancient textile tradition of tapestry, in a contemporary Australian context. The workshop creates beautiful tapestry representations of the work of both Indigenous and non-Indigenous artists, using woven techniques that date back to the 15th century. Each artwork is made from a selection of 366 colours, using fine Australian wool.
