On IWD we invite you to sit, yarn and weave together and acknowledge the creativity, strength and resilience of First Peoples women, matriarchs and mothers.

We will be using raffia in the IWD colours of green and purple – representing HOPE (green) and JUSTICE & DIGNITY (purple).

About Tarsha

Tarsha Davis is a Kuku Yalanji and Palawa artist based in Naarm. A multidisciplinary creative, her practice spans painting, digital art, weaving, jewellery making, and textiles. Weaving has become an important part of her work, drawing from family-taught techniques to create jewellery, baskets, and woven sculptures. Through her art, Tarsha explores connection, cultural reclamation, and advocacy, with a focus on community engagement and wellbeing outcomes.

Tarsha is an alumni of the KHT Blak Design Program (2024).
