    Artwork Story

    In Barkindji language, "Pirlatya" means "Mussels".

    "Above all else, this collection is about the love I have for my Country, and every aspect of it. From the tiny patterns to the overwhelming colours of a sunset - this is an ode to that love".

    The piece pays homage to Country by using photography to directly draw on the patterns and formations found in nature. 

    It celebrates what country organically creates by highlighting the organic minerals and markings of a mussel/midden shell as they spiral inward. By focusing on the intricate lustre of the shell we're reminded to take awe in, and preserve, the beauty in the world around us.

    Using photographic manipulation, colour alterations reflect the colours of the changing sky, obscuring our understanding of the original pattern and its origin - subtly bridging the sky with the sea to acknowledge nature's ability to become otherworldly."

    Our Beliefs

    Artist First. Always.

    We value our artists in everything we do. We work closely together to bring their artworks to life.

    We pay artist royalties on the full retail price - even during sales - because we'd never devalue their work. And they guide where our community contributions go.

    Our Beliefs

    Storytelling Matters

    We value storytelling as an Indigenous tradition and artform. As custodians, we protect these stories through our work with artists and the way their art is translated.

    Every piece honours its story, and when you wear it, you help carry it forward - because storytelling lives on.

    Our Beliefs

    Culture Is Everything

    Culture shapes how we see, speak, move, and create. Every design continues a deeper story. Through fashion, we honour culture and celebrate the people and stories behind it.

    Our Beliefs

    Business is a force for change

    We believe business should create opportunities and drive change. Giving back is central to who we are. 25% of profits go to Indigenous artists and communities.

    Our Beliefs

    Art Should Feel Good

    The fabric, design, ethos and the impact should all align. We want people to look good, feel good and do good. Creativity is about expression, connection, inclusivity and a sense of belonging.
