Artwork Story

In Barkindji language, "Para-Kiira Baaka" means "Far Away Country and Darling River".

"It was on trip out west with my Nan to my Country (Tipooburra, 14 hours north-west of Sydney) that inspired this collection.

The colours used for each print are based on a photograph I took on the trip. The red, black, blue and purple are representative of my Malyangapa family, and of the wide open plains and desert that is a part of the traditional landscape in the region.

The circles, on the other hand, represent the water ripples of a flowing, healthy Baaka [Darling River]. To create the ripples, I painted a series of concentric circles in ink on paper, taking pride in the unique shape each circle had. The ripples and the Baaka [Darling River] are more representative of my Barkindji roots."

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 our artists guide where our community contributions go.

  • Business is a force for change

    We believe business should create opportunities and drive change.

    Giving back is central to who we are. That's why we proudly contribute 25% of profits to First Nations artists and communities.

  • Storytelling Matters

    We value storytelling as a 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 ensure the story lives on.

  • 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.

  • 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.

Best swimwear I have ever owned

First and foremost the design is outstanding. The quality of the material and the overall garment is brilliant. I bought the Para-Kiira Baaka design in both black and green and I couldn’t be happier. I will definitely be buying some more.

I purchased the black version and I am really enjoying it. The pattern is distinct but subtle and I think it makes the black suit much more interesting. Perfect design referencing water ripples. The suit fits perfectly for swimming laps and it looks great on me LOL! I also like to support Indigenous artist whenever possible. Thanks!
