Young artists from the Highlands of Papua and similar items

The text "Jeunes artistes des Hautes Terres de Papouasie Nouvelle-Guinee" translates to "Young artists from the Highlands of Papua New Guinea," suggesting the artwork may be by emerging artists from that region. The phrase "KASTOM ISENSIS-MAKIM NUPELA NEM" could be in Tok Pisin or another local language, implying a connection to customary or traditional practices. The back of the postcard features a map-like drawing, titled "La vallee d'Asaro" by George Sari, indicating it may be a representation of the Asaro Valley, which is famous for the Asaro Mudmen, a cultural group known for their unique mud masks. The logos indicate involvement of the Tjibaou Cultural Centre, a hub for the promotion and preservation of Kanak culture in New Caledonia, suggesting a collaborative cultural exchange or an exhibition. The Centre Culturel Tjibaou, designed by renowned architect Renzo Piano, is a prominent institution in Noumea, New Caledonia, dedicated to celebrating Kanak culture as well as fostering regional relationships with Pacific cultures, which may include Papua New Guinea. This postcard is likely a cultural artifact intended for educational or promotional distribution, possibly related to an event or exhibition of Papua New Guinean art in New Caledonia. Shipping Policy Due to ever increasing postage costs, shipping is charged separately rather than hidden in the item's price. This method is more equitable, allowing customers closer in proximity to benefit from reduced shipping costs. For orders with multiple items, I'm happy to offer combined shipping (which can further save on shipping expenses). Returns are accepted, provided the item is still sealed in its original packaging.
