Proudly Celebrating Indigenous Artists
In November last year AATIS started the process of commissioning an Indigenous art piece, in which we could represent our acknowledgement of country and support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander people.
Alongside the National Aboriginal Design Agency (NADA), we shared our thoughts and concepts with Indigenous artists across Australia. The NADA is a design-based business that provide an income stream for Aboriginal artists plus create a solid licensing structure that protect both the artist and the client.
We had so many beautiful ideas and pieces were presented to us, which made choosing an artist to work with an extremely hard process! To make our final decision, we considered artists individual styles, stories, personalities and ultimately chose an artist who we felt the most connected to.
