DEEPLY CONNECTED TO COUNTRY

Indigenous art & design connecting your story to Boodja

We invite you to yarn and collaborate with an in-house Aboriginal artist to express your brand’s story and its connection to Boodja (Country).

Whether you’re drawn to an existing artwork created by our artists or are looking to commission a unique piece from an artist connected to the Country where you work, the process is grounded in making meaningful impacts.

Our creative team does more than just give you the artwork; we can turn a standalone piece of artwork into any product-ready design. The result? Deadly Indigenous artwork that honours community, culture and Country.

Every project begins with a yarn. Once we understand your vision and the Country you’re on, we connect you with the right artist – whether they’re part of our in-house team, our local network, or through our partnership with The Torch. This ensures that every commission empowers First Nations artists, including those transitioning back into the community through the justice system.

Curious about the journey? We’ve got answers.

How do you ensure the artist selected has a connection to the specific Country where our business operates?

Our team brings both lived experience and years of professional work within the Indigenous sector to every project. We prioritise sourcing artists from the specific Traditional Owner groups of the land where your offices or projects are located to ensure a true connection to Country

Can we request an artist from a specific nation or language group?

Absolutely! We love it when businesses have already started building their own relationships with local artists. If you are already in contact with the artist, we are more than happy to step in and facilitate the creative process.

What is the difference between choosing an existing design and commissioning a new piece?

If you see a piece you resonate with, or best represents the Country you are located on, we would be happy to infuse the art into your brand with a faster turnaround. Each piece comes with its own story, allowing you to dive into the deeper meaning. Commissioning a new piece is a truly collaborative journey. It’s an opportunity for an artist to sit down with you, yarn, and deeply understand your vision and values. Through this connection, they can create a one-of-a-kind work that authentically reflects your commitment to reconciliation and your respect for First Nations Peoples and the Country you operate on.

If we commission a new work, can we provide input on the story that the artwork tells?

Absolutely, a key part of how we operate is through dialogue. We want to deeply understand your brand and vision, so the story starts with you. The cultural expression and symbols come from the artists and their deep connections to Country and culture.

Can we combine our existing brand guidelines with the Indigenous artwork you provide?

Of course. We can thoughtfully incorporate your brand colours into the artwork, creating something deadly and unique to your brand and community. You’re also welcome to select an existing artwork, that we can then adapt the colour palette to align with your branding.

Can we see examples of how a standalone artwork is translated into a product-ready design?

Definitely! We’ve applied Indigenous artwork to just about anything you can imagine. Our team has experience translating stories onto everything from socks, scarves, and shirts to hats and full-scale building wraps. Just reach out to the team to take a look at previous projects that closely align with yours.
