Softness

For best care, machine wash gently in cold water, using a mild detergent, and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

Line dry out of direct sunlight, refrain from tumble drying to prevent shrinkage or fabric deterioration. If necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric to avoid damaging any prints or embellishments.

Avoid contact with rough surfaces or abrasive materials, as this may cause pilling or snags in the fabric. For long-term care, store the garment in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat or moisture.

The Artwork
""Grounded in cultural strength, this piece captures a living legacy—honouring the past while confidently looking toward the years ahead of unity, respect, and self-determination.""

Skye Lockyer

Tharragu

2025
Acrylic On Canvas

Skye Lockyer is a First Nations visual artist, creative storyteller and videographer, a proud Ngarluma, Kariyarra, Yawuru and Nyul Nyul woman, currently residing on Whadjuk Noongar Country (Western Australia).

This painting embodies the journey of NAIDOC—a story of resilience, strength, and hope carried through generations. At the heart of the composition, the sun rises with bold radiance, representing the enduring wisdom of our Elders, illuminating the path forward. Its warmth symbolises guidance, renewal, and the strength drawn from cultural knowledge that shines across time.

Emerging through the painting are gum leaves, representing connection to Country and the enduring resilience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Each leaf carries the stories of ancestors who nurtured the land and fought for justice and equality. Among the leaves, delicate blossoms bloom, symbolising hope and a flourishing future for the next generation. They remind us that from strong roots, new growth emerges—vibrant and full of potential.

Water and journey lines are woven throughout the painting, signifying the shared journey and connection of our people. This path bridges history and future, a testament to decades of advocacy and cultural celebration.

Grounded in cultural strength, this piece captures a living legacy—honouring the past while confidently looking toward the years ahead of unity, respect, and self-determination.

Through gum leaves, blossoms, and the guiding sun, this artwork tells a story of resilience, growth, and shared vision—a celebration of a movement that will continue to rise and evolve, led by the enduring strength of our people.
