Yikwani is fire and is central to Tiwi life for caring for country, hunting time and bush cooking.

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 first collection is 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!
