AP363 Ulabanana Necklace

banana seeds, paint, Vau, 2007, by Alan Preston

From AVID exhiition: The Stuff Necklaces Are Made Of  February 2018

I first saw banana seed men’s necklaces in Papua in 1980. I asked what the necklace was made from and they said seeds from the bush. The one I have has seeds much smaller than those on the necklace I have made. I first discovered these seeds in a friend’s garden and it was years later that I discovered they come from Abyssinian banana trees which grow in profusion around Auckland.

So now we have Ulabanana.

SOLD

$675 (NZD)
