Design story: Where the Land Meets the Sea
Bianca’s heritage descends from the Aboriginal community of Goodooga, in the northwestern region of NSW, the traditional land of the Kamilaroi/ Gamilaroi people. This elegant and restful artwork describes the landscape that Bianca loves, where the land meets the sea.
Bianca founded the Culcha Collective – which can be found on Facebook. Bianca’s mother, Gloria Gardiner, is a prominent Aboriginal artist of the Northern Rivers born in the community Goodooga, northwest NSW. This is the traditional Lands of the Gamilaroi peoples. Her restful palette reflects environmental and Aboriginal cultural themes.
