It brings me immense joy and pride to present to you this very special edition of Façon magazine.

This issue holds a special place in my heart because it not only celebrates creativity, but also pays homage to the art, design, and creativity of the traditional custodians of the land we live on, walk on, and create upon.

At Façon, we believe in the power of storytelling and the importance of giving a platform to diverse voices.

That's why I am thrilled to announce the launch of the Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship, also known as the "Djuyalgal Scholarship" in the traditional Gathang language of the Worimi People.

The scholarship is a collaboration between Façon and Greater Bank, with a shared mission of connecting our regional community to Indigenous expression and art while supporting the culture, arts, and creativity of Australia's First Nations people.

The Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship is a program designed to celebrate, sustain, and nurture Indigenous art and design in New South Wales. As part of this initiative, Greater Bank will provide a scholarship to support the winner's creative aspirations. The recipient will also receive guidance and mentorship from the esteemed Murrook Culture Centre and our revered mentors, ensuring that their journey is guided by cultural knowledge and wisdom.

This multi-layered assistance will help the recipient in more ways than they realise.

It clears a creative mind from a financial perspective, so that they are truly free to think,

create, share their story, plan and, last but not least, sleep without worrying about how they are going to make their creative dream come true.

How do I know this? Well, from practical experience, with my own creative dreams and aspirations when I started my beloved Façon. My early struggles are well known to my family and my amazing , dedicated team. However, I was very lucky to receive philanthropic assistance and a big learning curve in grant writing resulted in some financial assistance.

A creative career path is a difficult one to navigate on so many levels - this is why the Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship is so close to my heart.

Creating a special edition of Façon Magazine exclusively featuring profiles of the scholarship finalists and their mentors is a great honour. This edition will serve as a testament to the wealth of artistic expression and storytelling prowess within Australia's Indigenous community.

I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this meaningful initiative and to witness first-hand the transformative power of art and storytelling. Together, let us celebrate, support, and elevate the Indigenous creatives whose voices have often been overlooked, marginalised or taken advantage of in the past. Let us forge connections, nurture talent, and build a more inclusive and vibrant creative landscape.

Thank you for joining us on this extraordinary

Paving the Way for RECONCILIATION

SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM PROVIDES AN IMPORTANT STEP IN GREATER BANK’S RECONCILIATION JOURNEY.

Today’s First Nations creators are the Custodians of the oldest unbroken tradition of art in the world. Through practices across a range of disciplines, Indigenous Australian artists have shared their stories and expressed culture, community, and love for Country for millennia.

There are so many extraordinary Indigenous artists across New South Wales who are making their mark in the creative arts sector. Greater Bank is privileged to support real opportunities for artistic growth and development through the provision of $10,000 in scholarship funding for The Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship program and partnering with Façon to bring this program to life.

As a customer-owned bank, we have a long history of supporting the community. You could say it’s in our DNA. This program, however, was something special.

Greater Bank is on the path to Reconciliation, and The Indigenous Storytellers program presented an opportunity for us to play a meaningful role in moving towards better understanding and supporting our First Nations communities. That’s what art can do.

The program has unearthed a wealth of creative talent across the state with more than 70 quality entries received, from which the committee had the unenviable task of selecting nine finalists and the eventual scholarship recipient.

The program has unearthed a wealth of creative talent across the state.”

We’ve embraced this scholarship opportunity knowing it has potential to positively change the future for all involved, which is incredibly exciting. While the scholarship itself is important, the opportunity for the winner to work with a mentor who is a leader in their field will be an invaluable experience.

Greater Bank believes in providing greater support and partnership to our First Nations communities and we are committed to reconciliation and working closely to build strong relationships across the communities in which we operate.

Together, our aim is to demonstrate a genuine support for Indigenous Australians, both internally through our employees and externally with current and future customers.

We’d like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the entrants and finalists of the Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship. We look forward to following the careers and future endeavours of these remarkable artists.

Together, our aim is to demonstrate a genuine support for Indigenous Australians.”

NURTURING ART, CREATIVITY AND CULTURE

The Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship, also known as the Djuyalgal Scholarship in the traditional Gathang language of the Worimi People, is an initiative that supports and celebrates the creativity and artistic expressions of Australia's First Nations people.

THE SCHOLARSHIP, A COLLABORATION BETWEEN FAÇON MAGAZINE AND GREATER BANK, IS DESIGNED TO CELEBRATE, SUSTAIN AND NURTURE INDIGENOUS ART AND DESIGN IN NEW SOUTH WALES.

It offers a $10,000 scholarship to support the winner's creative aspirations, along with guidance from Murrook Culture Centre, an organisation that provides education and cultural experiences related to the Worimi People.

This special edition of Façon Magazine profiles the finalists in each category, as well as the Indigenous mentors involved in the scholarship.

The scholarship program opened applications to nine different creative discipline categories: fashion design, accessory design, art painting, music, dance, writing, digital art, film, and photography. The program seeks to foster Indigenous talent in each of these categories and provide a platform for Indigenous artists to share their stories.

The winner of the scholarship program will receive $10,000 to support their creative aspirations, along with a mentoring session with a leading voice from their creative discipline. Additionally, they will have access to Murrook Culture Centre's

facilities and guidance. The winner will be selected from the finalists of each category by a special panel comprised of local business leaders and First Nations voices from the community.

The scholarship committee includes a range of community members who are dedicated to promoting Indigenous art and culture in the region. They include Lara Lupish, Editor-in-Chief of Façon Magazine; Ingrid Kaczor, Community Engagement Manager of Greater Bank; Andrew Smith, CEO of Worimi Local Aboriginal Land Council; Simone Jordan, from the Office of Indigenous Strategy and Leadership at the University of Newcastle; Alissa McCulloch, Director of HUNTERhunter; Kate O'Mara, Director of Special Projects RDA Hunter; Dr. Kirsten Molloy, President of the Equal Futures Project; Lynne Mangovski, Member of the Hunter Medical Research Foundation; Jack Bailey, Communications and Marketing Manager of Façon Magazine; and Jason Fox, Senior Manager of Façon Magazine.

The scholarship program is an opportunity to celebrate the rich and diverse artistic traditions of Australia's First Nations people, while also supporting the next generation of Indigenous artists. The scholarship provides Indigenous artists with the resources and support they need to pursue their creative passions and tell their stories through various artistic mediums.

Through The Indigenous Storytellers Scholarship, Façon and Greater Bank aim to connect the regional community with Indigenous expression and art. The scholarship program provides a platform to showcase Indigenous talent and to promote greater understanding and appreciation of Indigenous art and culture in New South Wales.

This program is an important step towards recognising and valuing the contributions of Australia's First Nations people to the country's cultural and artistic heritage. It is a way of acknowledging the unique stories, experiences, and perspectives of Indigenous Australians and providing them with the resources they need to share their stories with the world.

HARRIS Samantha

Samantha Harris is a name synonymous with the Australian fashion industry. As a member of the Dunghutti people, she has not only broken barriers in the modelling world but also become a powerful advocate for Indigenous rights and culture. In fact, Samantha firmly believes that the inclusion of Indigenous culture by mainstream fashion is the biggest change of her 20-year international career.

Samantha fell in love with modelling when she was just four years old, after her first appearance on a junior catwalk in a shopping centre in Tweed Heads, in northern New South Wales. Growing up in a busy household with limited financial resources, the modelling industry offered Harris an avenue to fulfil her dreams and provide for her family.

At 13, Samantha entered a national competition in Girlfriend magazine, which led to her signing with Chic Management. This marked the beginning of her career as one of the most successful Indigenous models in the world. She has graced the covers of magazines including Vogue Australia and has walked the runway for some of the biggest names in fashion, including Romance was Born, Dion Lee, Ellery, just to name a few..

Not defined by her modelling career, she is also a passionate advocate for Indigenous rights and culture. In 2019, she travelled to the Kimberleys with her mother to campaign with World Vision for improved living conditions in remote communities. She is determined to use her influence to raise awareness about the issues faced by people living in those communities and to support them where possible.

Samantha has seen a significant shift in the fashion industry during her career. When she first started

out, there were very few Indigenous models in the industry. As the years went on, she and other Indigenous models were able to showcase their talent. Today, there are Indigenous runway shows, Indigenous singers and artists, and Indigenous designers.

Samantha welcomes mainstream fashion’s gradual but now firm embrace of Indigenous culture.

A role model for younger women and girls of all colour, Samantha uses her platform to speak out about the issues she cares about, and to empower others. She has become a favourite subject for high school projects and young fans seek her out for photo opportunities and selfies.

She is not the only Indigenous model making waves in the industry. Whadjuk Noongar man and model Nathan McGuire is another rising star who uses his influence to mentor young Indigenous kids keen to enter the industry.

SHE HAS EXPERIENCED THE THRILL OF WALKING ALONGSIDE OTHER INDIGENOUS MODELS, WEARING BEAUTIFUL INDIGENOUS DESIGNS AT AUSTRALIAN FASHION WEEK:

"IT WAS JUST, THIS IS ME – THIS IS WHO I AM. I WAS REPRESENTING MY CULTURE IN BEAUTIFUL INDIGENOUS DESIGNS. IT FELT QUITE AMAZING AND LIBERATING TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT."

SAMANTHA SEES OPPORTUNITIES TO USE HER INFLUENCE BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE FASHION INDUSTRY. IF FASHION CAN CONTINUE TO BECOME MORE INCLUSIVE AND REPRESENTATIVE, THEN THERE IS EVEN MORE POTENTIAL FOR POSITIVE CHANGE.

A testament to the power of perseverance and determination, she is proud of her Indigenous heritage and uses her voice to raise awareness about the issues faced by Indigenous communities.

The fashion industry has come a long way in terms of representation, but there is still much more to be done. With inspiring figures like Samantha and Nathan leading the way, the future of Indigenous representation in fashion looks bright.

This is an amended version of the cover story that ran in Façon Magazine: Dreaming Edition, originally published in 2022.

JOHNSON Cherie

In the vibrant realm of Aboriginal arts and education, one name shines bright: Cherie Johnson.

As the visionary behind Speaking in Colour, Cherie is an esteemed consultant dedicated to uplifting and empowering indigenous communities. Hailing from South Australia and raised on Awabakal country, commonly known as Newcastle, she is an active member of the Awabakal Community, a testament to her deep-rooted connection to her people.

Cherie grew up around nature and the arts. Her mother is a fine artist and a lover of all things natural. This foundation of creativity, nature, heritage and culture became the very essence of who Cherie is today, fuelling her passion and drive to make a lasting impact.

“As a creative person, I’ve always had process diaries as part of my art-making practice, written scripts and imagined worlds,” she says of her

love for the arts. “In fact, we would create stories of fantastic characters and worlds all of the time, thinking not much beyond our night routine.”

Cherie acquired a Diploma in Teaching from the University of Newcastle (UoN) in 2006 and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Sydney in 2001. Complementing her formal education, she honed her skills in dance through the National Aboriginal and Islander Skills Development Association (NAISDA), further enhancing her artistic repertoire.

Beyond her roles as a mother, educator, artist, author, and entrepreneur, Cherie is completing a PhD, delving into the profound subject of "the effects of urban Aboriginal women embracing their culture and its significance in the contemporary context." This research exemplifies her commitment to exploring and understanding the transformative power of cultural reclamation in modern society.

Cherie's expertise as a previous lecturer in Aboriginal culture and education is highly regarded, earning her a position as a casual lecturer at UoN.

THROUGH HER ENGAGING AND INSIGHTFUL TEACHING, SHE INSPIRES AND ENLIGHTENS STUDENTS, FOSTERING A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING AND APPRECIATION FOR INDIGENOUS CULTURE.

An accomplished artist, Cherie's photographic and woven artworks have graced prestigious exhibitions in Perth, Sydney, and her beloved hometown of Newcastle. Moreover, her contributions extend beyond gallery walls, as she has also left her indelible mark through the creation of significant public artworks in Newcastle. This artistic expression serves as a powerful medium to convey her unique perspective and encapsulate the essence of her heritage.

Asked what inspires her, Cherie simply states: “Creation, nature, my dreams, everything in my world. There is no one thing that creates the perfect storm, it’s a factor of many.”

In addition to her artistic endeavors, Cherie dedicates her time and expertise to her business Speaking in Colour, which educates, equips and encourages other businesses and educators to understand and embrace Aboriginal culture. By ensuring the alignment of business success with positive social impact within local communities, she exemplifies her commitment to effecting meaningful change on multiple fronts.

Cherie considers her biggest achievements in life as, “being a mum to two beautiful humans; navigating adulthood on my own; the work we do at Speaking in Colour, and the social impact it has.”

Her unwavering dedication to Aboriginal arts, education, and cultural preservation has established her as an influential force. Through her profound insights, artistic brilliance, and unwavering determination, Cherie continues to shape a brighter and more inclusive future for indigenous communities, leaving a notable legacy for generations to come.

And her advice to any up-and-coming writers? “Write daily - morning and night. Scribble with no hesitation. Pour out your ballads, write letters to yourself. Write a letter as someone else to another person entirely. Speak for the trees. Imagine all the possible perspectives, especially the ones not considered before. Find the joy.”

FIELDING Saretta

Saretta Fielding is a renowned Wonnarua artist and designer with a deep connection to her Indigenous culture, Country, and community. Her journey in Indigenous art, culture, and Country has been extensive, spanning both her roles as an artist and a commercial designer. As a proud Indigenous woman, Saretta's cultural identity is intricately woven into every aspect of her fine artworks and designs, which showcase the unique culture of Australia's First Nations peoples.

Through her corporate and private commissions, Saretta creates artworks that serve to strengthen her connection to her Country and people while also sharing her culture with others. She believes that each artwork is a way of making a connection to those who curate and collect her works, regardless

of their cultural background or location. This passion for authentic, engaging, and thoughtprovoking artwork has garnered Saretta a fanbase that spans the globe.

Saretta's love of art began during her childhood, when she experimented with different art mediums and techniques. Her fascination with the challenge of using art to convey contemporary influencessuch as the challenges facing her community, the beauty of nature, and the experiences of life - has remained a constant throughout her career.

Saretta's main medium is sand-based media and millennia-old engraving techniques which pay homage to traditional Wonnarua sand engravings still found throughout the Hunter region in New South Wales, Australia. Each highly textured piece embodies the enduring style, designs, and totems

of ancient engravings, adding a striking dimension to her contemporary works.

However, Saretta's work is not just about creating beautiful art. It's also about promoting economic inclusion for Aboriginal communities through art. She's committed to supporting initiatives in the arts that contribute to closing the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. In 2016, Saretta Art and Design established the Malang Indigenous Corporation, a not-for-profit organisation that champions social investment in Indigenous communities by nurturing and supporting emerging and established Indigenous artists and designers nationwide.

Creating a platform for Indigenous and nonIndigenous Australians to move forward together is a high priority for Saretta. She believes that art has the power to bring people together and create a shared understanding of culture, history, and identity. Through her artwork and initiatives, Saretta has forged a strong path into the international and Australian art scene with heart and soul that is visible and intentional in every art piece that she creates.

Through her initiatives and collaborations, she is creating a more inclusive art community which values the contributions and perspectives of Indigenous artists.

With her talent and dedication, Saretta has established herself as a trailblazer in the international and Australian art scene, and her impact on the art world will undoubtedly continue to grow in the years to come.

SARETTA'S PASSION FOR HER WORK IS PALPABLE. HER ART IS NOT ONLY VISUALLY STUNNING BUT ALSO MEANINGFUL AND POWERFUL, ACTING AS A BRIDGE BETWEEN CULTURES AND PROMOTING A GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF INDIGENOUS CULTURE AND HISTORY.

Bangarra is known for its powerful and evocative performances which draw on Indigenous culture and storytelling to create a unique and inspiring dance experience.

Kassidy is a descendant of the Wonnarua Nation and grew up in regional New South Wales. She began dancing at a young age and was immediately drawn to the expressive and emotional nature of dance.

In 2012, Kassidy was successful in joining the NSW Public Schools Aboriginal Dance Company, created in partnership with Bangarra Dance Theatre and The Arts Unit. There, she discovered Bangarra

and was captivated by the company's fusion of Indigenous culture and contemporary dance. She trained for four years at the National Aboriginal Islander Skills Development Association (NAISDA Dance College) in a range of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Dance and culture, classical, modern and contemporary dance, then completed Sydney Dance Company’s Pre Professional Year of 2017.

She has performed in several of Bangarra's productions, including the critically acclaimed SandSong: Stories from the Great Sandy Desert, which premiered in 2020. SandSong is a consultation between Bangarra and the Wangkatjungka/Walmajarri People of the Kimberley and Great Sandy Desert Region of Australia. The production tells the story of the People’s fight for their land and culture against the forces of colonisation and industrialisation. A part of the ensemble cast, Kassidy played a key role in bringing the story to life through dance.

Beyond Bangarra, Kassidy is passionate about using dance as a tool for educating, empowering and continuing culture. She has worked extensively

with youth nationally and internationally as well as many different projects, performance works and artists. She believes that dance has the power to break down barriers and unite people.

Bangarra Dance Theatre was established in 1989 by NAISDA (National Aboriginal Islander Skills Development Association) Dance College founder Carole Y. Johnson and NAISDA alumni Rob Bryant and Cheryl Stone. Stephen Page was Bangarra’s artistic director for 32 years.

The company is committed to showcasing the richness and diversity of Indigenous culture through dance and storytelling.

In addition to its performance work, Bangarra is committed to community outreach and engagement. The company runs several education and outreach programs, including a dance training program for Indigenous youth, and works with Indigenous communities across Australia to share and celebrate culture through dance.

Kassidy is just one of the many talented dancers who have been drawn to Bangarra's unique blend of culture and contemporary dance.

HER PASSION FOR DANCE AND HER COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL CHANGE MAKE HER A PERFECT FIT FOR THE COMPANY'S MISSION AND VALUES.

Bangarra Dance Theatre remains a trailblazer in the world of contemporary dance and as Kassidy continues to evolve as an artist, it is clear that her contributions to Bangarra and the wider world of dance will only continue to become more significant.

She is a rising star to watch out for in the dance world.

Throughout her career, Christine has fearlessly embraced a range of music genres, effortlessly blending pop, R&B, jazz, and traditional Indigenous sounds to create a unique and powerful style. Her albums, including Stylin' Up (1995), 45 Degrees (2003), and Chrissy's Island Family (2007), received critical acclaim, showcasing her versatility as an artist and her ability to convey deep emotions through her soul-stirring voice.

FIELD Matt

Broadcaster, television producer, and proud descendant from Kuku Yalanji Country: Matt Field is making waves in the entertainment industry. His notable achievement is creating the television series Music People, which reaches audiences across Australia, America, and Europe and utlises live music to raise awareness and revenue for social causes.

Matt's artistic journey began at a young age when he discovered a love for creating music. He started playing the drums at the age of eight, and his passion for drums, groove, rhythm, and music

has since remained strong. He credits his parents for buying him his first drum kit at the age of nine, which sparked his lifelong devotion to the instrument.

Matt is always grateful for the wonderful people he meets in the creative industries, as they continue to inspire him. Among his greatest achievements, he proudly acknowledges his wife and two children.

He has realised his dream of producing and hosting a music TV show in Music People, which provides a platform for talented creatives and offers him the opportunity to meet remarkable artists in the

industry. Matt values the stability and love he shares with his family while working in an industry that often challenges traditional family dynamics, and recognises that this balance requires hard work.

An early but already powerful legacy of Music People is its contribution to amplifying the voices of First Nations storytellers. Matt believes that sharing knowledge is crucial for the unity and progress of their country.

FOR OUR STORYTELLERS, THE PROGRAM AIMS TO CONTRIBUTE TO A MOVEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING AND RECONCILIATION.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, when venues closed and musicians faced unemployment, Matt raised enough capital to pay over 140 musicians to perform on Music People. He also provided employment for a production crew of 10, ensuring their livelihoods during difficult times.

Music People continues to make a difference by providing instruments and music tuition to families in need. For instance, last month, the show supported 12 households in the Rivergum Grandparents as Parents group, where grandparents serve as primary caregivers for their grandkids on limited incomes.

Matt's experience working in the TV industry is extensive and diverse. In 2006, he was involved in one of the first live-streamed music television shows called Monday Night LIVE, streamed on the internet. He also worked on the ABC music show Live at Basement. Following his passion for drumming, he performed with various touring bands. From 2014 to 2018, Matt hosted and produced Balcony TV, a music television show in Sydney. It gained popularity through a YouTube channel, showcasing Australian artists to an international audience. In 2019, recognising the potential of social media live stream broadcasts,

Matt raised more than $200,000 to launch his music show, Music People.

For aspiring individuals seeking a career in the TV industry, Matt offers valuable advice. He acknowledges the challenges of breaking into the industry but encourages persistence and remaining open to unexpected opportunities that align with one's vision.

Matt emphasises the importance of integrity and the ability to accept rejection, as it only takes one "yes" to move forward. He advises staying focused on the vision and working diligently, even during times when progress may seem slow. Finally, he recommends spending time in silence, connecting with the spiritual language of the land, and gaining wisdom from the experience.

Matt's journey as a broadcaster, TV producer, and advocate for social causes exemplifies his commitment to the arts and making a positive impact through his work. With Music People, he continues to bring the power of live music to audiences worldwide while uplifting marginalised voices and supporting communities in need.

REID-LOYNES Priscilla

Priscilla Reid-Loynes, a Gamilaroi Ullaroi woman hailing from the town of Walgett, in North-West New South Wales, has embarked on a creative journey deeply rooted in her cultural heritage. From her childhood memories of vibrant crepe paper flowers adorning tables during celebrations, to the act of collecting and crafting with natural treasures found in her homeland, Priscilla's love for creating runs deep.

As an adult, Priscilla has embraced storytelling as her artistic medium, sharing cultural knowledge and stories as a storytelling artist in early childhood, primary, and secondary educational spaces for more than 25 years.

She has also has delved into the art of weaving, particularly focusing on Yadhaar Gurayn, or feather

flowers, and adornment making. These practices serve to remember and honour the traditional ways of adorning homes and creating wearable art as a Gamilaroi Ullaroi woman. Priscilla regards her creative process as an unbroken practice handed down by her ancestors, a timeless tradition she refers to as Maaramaldaana, which encapsulates the essence of continuous creation and being in the world.

Priscilla's artistic endeavors have yielded notable achievements throughout her career. As a creative story artist, she developed Spin A Yarn, a game designed to nurture strong oral language skills in early childhood.

She played a pivotal role in the creation of the television series Little J and Big Cuz, which received a Logie Award in its inaugural season. Priscilla continues to contribute to the show, now

in its final (fourth) season.

One of Priscilla's proudest accomplishments in adornment making was reclaiming the tradition by crafting a possum fur wrap for her niece, Luuluu, as a baby, and weaving a basket for her daughter, Sarah. More recently, Priscilla and Sarah were commissioned to create adornments for designer Annette Sax of fashion brand wa-ring. Their work featured in Annette's debut runway show and graced the pages of Façon’s Dreaming Edition in 2022, with the adornments worn by renowned First Nations model Samantha Harris.

Another highlight for Priscilla and Sarah was their collaboration with The Australian Ballet's production The Hum, utilising their knowledge of the Eurah plant from Gamilaroi and Ullaroi Country to eco-dye fabric and incorporate cultural narratives. Witnessing their Maaramaldaana adornments alongside the designs of Taungurung artist Annette Sax on stage at the Sydney Opera House was a stirring moment in their creative journey.

mussel shells, remnants of her ancestors' gatherings, all serve as wellsprings to spark the imagination. Priscilla finds inspiration in the rhythmic dance of the Earth with water, sun, moon, wind, and the traces left behind in their wake.

When asked to impart wisdom to aspiring accessory designers, Priscilla offers sage advice grounded in her personal experiences. She urges them to draw inspiration from their own Country and lived experiences, their creation stories, and the language passed down by their ancestors. She emphasises the importance of creating with love and care for Country, people, and future generations, thus preserving the integrity of their work.

Priscilla Reid-Loynes's artistic journey serves as a testament to the power of creativity and cultural connection. Through her storytelling and adornment making, she weaves a vibrant tapestry of Gamilaroi Ullaroi heritage, inspiring others to embrace their own roots and contribute to the artistic landscape with purpose and integrity.

The ability to instill a sense of strength and spiritual connection through her adornments, while passing down knowledge to future generations, is a source of immense joy and fulfillment.

Priscilla draws inspiration from Gunimaa, or Mother Earth, and the rich tapestry of stories and language woven into the Gamilaroi Ullaroi Country and Knowledge system. Dhariwaa, her beloved homeland, teems with diverse plant and bird life. The vivid hues of gum and pine leaves, the expanse of the azure sky, the lilac buddha wood flower (a cousin of the medicinal plant), and the shimmering

FOR PRISCILLA, THE ACT OF CREATING ACCESSORIES HOLDS DEEP SIGNIFICANCE. IT REPRESENTS A CONTINUATION OF ANCESTRAL PRACTICES, CONNECTING HER TO THE OLDEST LIVING CULTURES IN THE WORLD.
