Birdtribe Wearable Art

Far North Queensland artist Nina Lavarini Dawson takes inspiration from the natural environment – utilising native tropical plants to transform textiles through an eco dye method. Her one off textiles see seasonal environmental transformations captured across her range of scarves. The colour produced in each scarf is affected by a number of environmental and climate conditions – seeing a spectrum of colour produced.

Of the North, For the North

We work to support artists achieve their aspirations. Artists set their prices and we add a standard service and marketing commission - this supports our not-for-profit programs and allows us to continually turn over the highest-quality artistic products.

Most artworks are one-offs and completely original in the iconic style of that artist; with the exception of intaglio and relief prints, which the organisation is renowned for. Check out our selection of limited-edition fine art printmaking.

Over 95% of the artists we support are from North Queensland. We work with both independent artists and those represented by commercial dealers and art centres.
