Dumba in Wiradjuri language translates to ‘showing’.
The Dumba print allows us to translate stunning artworks beyond wall display and onto garments where they become moving celebrations of First Nations creativity.
Nginha translates in Wiradjuri language to “here” or “this”
In a time when the world slowed down the Nginha collection evolved from the calmness and open spaces.
The collection prints have been respectfully translated from the stunning artwork of First Nations artist Lindsay Malay, who lives in the remote Kimberley region of northern Australia. The translation of the artworks has been created in repeat to add strength to the softness of luxurious silks that drape the body and move effortlessly across the silhouettes. In essence depicting a work of art in motion.
Gija man, Lindsay Malay works from the Warmun Art Centre, located 200kms outside of Kununurra in the Kimberley, Western Australia. Warmun is renowned for its artists' use of natural ochre and pigments to denote a contemporary expression of Country and culture and its reputation is felt both nationally and internationally due to the calibre of highly successful artists in the community.
Lindsay's work is vibrant and transfixing, telling the story of the Country he inherited from his Grandfather and of which his family regained traditional ownership of in 2010.
