Breaching Whale (Wuymirri) Fleece Blanket

Perfect for those cosy nights where you need something that protects you from the elements. This design holds a sacred story and personal meaning to the artist who created it. The breaching whale featuring in it symbolises nurturing for both the creatures of the ocean and the entire universe. To the people who hold this sacred knowledge of this special animal, they understand that it harbours deep purpose and respect, and crosses entire oceans to call out and watch over the creatures and pull them out of suffering and misery. This is indigenous knowledge that has been passed down by the Munyuku clan of East Arnhem Land, who are the Yolngu people of this coastline. The artist is non indigenous but was born in this place, and the indigenous people have adopted the artist and gave them the honour of having this name and purpose.
