42nd AWARD Awards Special Awards announcement graphic

In November 2021, I placed second in Emerging Indigenous Creative Talent at the 42nd AWARD Awards.

The special award recognised an artist’s body of work, judged by a specialist jury. The official results listed me as an artist and designer under nardurna.

Coming around eighteen months after I began sharing paintings from our kitchen table, it marked an early moment of recognition for the practice I was building across painting, design and commercial collaborations.

The special awards results were announced on 4 November, with Advertising Council Australia publishing the announcement the following day.
