Maker Story...
Introducing ReTelling Country - a new enterprise by our team member, and young Tiwi leader, Sharniqua Oxtoby.
ReTelling Country is a collection of small, handmade creations representing Sharniqua's connection to country and culture in the tropical north.
Her inaugural collection was a series of woven earrings, using traditional techniques taught by Aunty Sandy from the Wangatunga Strong Women's group.
A Two-Kind production, Sharniqua has received women's business mentoring support from our collective, who are dedicated to creating career pathways and investing in the next generation.
We hope this one-of-a-kindness collection inspires you too!
