Narumbe Initiation

$400

The Kukabrak (also known as the Ngarrindjeri) tradition of initiation involved three young Narumbe (novices) who were selected during a gathering and then set up in a camp on the outskirts of the community in sight of the male Elders. The Narumbe boys would often be accompanied by a grandmother who was tasked with preparing food and caring for the health of the boys.

More information

What is artwork stretching?
Your stretched and ready to hang painting will come complete with D-rings, hanging wire, and a small artwork label affixed to the back.

Why can’t I select unstretched canvas?
Some of our paintings are painted close to the edge of the canvas, and don’t have a border wide enough for standard stretching. These artworks will be ‘strip-lined’ with a quality cotton edging. As this is a boutique process, these paintings must be stretched by The Torch and are not available to be shipped as unstretched artworks.

Some paintings may also be unavailable unstretched because they have already been stretched for use in exhibitions.

How much will the artist receive?
100% of the artwork price, set before the stretching and delivery costs are added, is paid directly to the artist.
