Pandanus by Osmond Kantilla
Osmond designed his ‘pandanus’ print in 1986. Pandanus is Osmond’s father’s clan group.
“My brothers and sisters follow the footsteps of my father’s clan when we dance at ceremony. My dad used to be a song writer and a dancer and that is why I did a design called pandanus in memory of him. When you see that pandanus tree out bush it is very green with long pointy leaves. I had those ideas in mind when I made my design.”
