SILK ART FROM SIGAVOU
PACIFIC PATCHWORK COLLECTION
PACIFIC PATCHWORK ART FROM SIGAVOU
Fiji is a place of joyful colors – our market places, reefs, and tropical gardens are bursting with brilliant hues! For award-winning Fiji artist Maria Rova, painting with dyes on pure white silk is her way of celebrating the vibrant palette of our tropical island home—and sharing her love of Fiji’s natural beauty and rich living culture with the world. Our Pacific Patchwork collection brings the eye-catching colors of Maria’s silk art to our customers in a new, flexible form: Dozens of brightly colored, hand-painted silk squares featuring the flora and fauna of our islands and reefs. The silk squares, wrap-mounted on cards measuring 12.5 x 12.5 cm, can be framed individually, or mixed and matched in a patchwork effect to create larger works of art. We can do this for our clients, or they can have the joy of co-creating their own customized art pieces, choosing out and arranging a selection of Pacific Patchwork squares that appeals to them. Each Pacific Patchwork square is painted by hand using the same masterdrawing as a starting point. Individual squares are presented in clear cellophane envelopes, with a signed Certificate of Authenticity attached at the back. Image and Text: © SigavouStudios Ltd All rights reserved.

SIGAVOU STUDIOS LTD A family-owned company founded in 1998, Sigavou Studios prides itself in its reputation as a source of high-quality, unique artwork . Our flagship product is original art by company director Maria Rova. A look through our studio gallery will reveal the trademarks of Maria’s work: Eye-catching , contemporary designs on pure silk and traditional Fijian barkcloth - all of them infused with Maria’’s love of Pacific Island life ! Maria was raised in the United States and Europe, but has lived and worked in Fiji for the past 25 years. Her art is inspired by Fiji’s tropical environment and the rich cultural traditions of her Fijian family. However, Maria’s international background gives her the added edge of feeling at home in a variety of cultures; her artwork is sought after by corporate clients and collectors from around Fiji and across the world. Apart from the women from Maria’s extended family who supply the hand-crafted barkcloth we paint on, Sigavou Studios employs a team of young emerging artists and studio technicians to assist with the design and production of hand-painted limited edition art on barkcloth and silk. Fiji-style gifts and mementos such as hand-painted barkcloth book marks and greeting cards are also part of our product range. We look forward to sharing the warmth and vibrant colors of our Pacific Island home with you too!
With warm Fijian greetings from all of us at Sigavou Studios!
