“Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.”
Joy’s carefully woven piece puts natural materials front and centre, emitting natural beauty that speaks of the Country it comes from.
Locally-harvested pandanus leaves are woven raw, or dyed naturally using roots, leaves or flowers to produce a beautiful, subdued colour palette.

Nunggayinbala people have used dilly bags for thousands of years for practical and ceremonial purposes, but not until recently were they made from repurposed ghost nets and shade cloth fabric.
Dilly bags, or “yir” in Nunggubuyu language, were traditionally made from pandanus or bark, and painted using different shades of ochre. Numbulwar artists have taken tradition to the next level by replicating the forms using found, contemporary materials that speak to the environmental deterioration of their homelands. Brightly coloured acrylics replace ochre stripes for clan identification and individual expression.
