The project is about identity of yolngu women and this group of print makers.

The skirts we all wear everyday for work are always bright and colourful long skirts, with different design and patterns. We put the skirt designs with our faces through the screenprinting process as an exploration of identity.

The design of my yapa skirt looks like it is fruit orange or lemon. The skirt itself is black and white, but for the print I converted these colours to shades of blue . I chose the blue colours for the water that is all around us.
