Product Story

Created by Aboriginal artist Cindy Wallace, Bush Food Dreaming is a vibrant depiction of nature’s generosity and the sacred relationship between people and the land.
The artwork celebrates the rich harvest of bush sultanas, tomatoes, cherries, and the flowing waterholes and walking paths where women gather with digging sticks.

For generations, Aboriginal people have lived with profound respect for balance — taking only what is needed and giving thanks for what the earth provides.
This Dreaming reminds us that abundance comes not from accumulation, but from harmony with nature.


Designer’s Inspiration

I was drawn to the way our First People live with such quiet trust — knowing that the heavens and the earth always provide.
Their way of life speaks of gratitude, contentment, and the simple joy of being.
This artwork reminds me to pause, breathe, and remember that living beautifully can be as simple as being thankful for the now.


Handmade with love by artisan mothers in Australia.
