The Outback

The Outback is a collection inspired by Aboriginal Art and the beautiful country of Australia and it's indigenous peoples.

The collection comprises of Gumnut, Yanga, Yirrkala, Banksia, Nauiyu, Pintupi and Red Kangaroo.

I’d like to recognise the Boonwurrung People of the Kulin Nation, traditional owners of the land and water on which I live, work,  and create and to pay respect to the Indigenous People of this beautiful land I now call home.
