Emma Stenhouses SS23 collection, titled Journey & Nurture, is based on her personal journeys and connections as an Indigenous woman. Emmas story spans across four decades, desert and sea; as she explores the challenges and monuments of her cultural growth, connection to Country and being an Artist. Moving through time and space, from the bush to the beach her stories are formed by her deep relationship to land and guided by strong female role models in her community: Dry Creek is placed outside of Broken Hill in Outback NSW in Mutawintji National Park. A place of red dirt, dry land and gorges where waterholes remain after much needed rain. The dry creek bed winds its way through the gorge and dust is firmly settled on the rocks. The hot sun blazes down during the summer; the heat will eventually dry up these waterholes. The cave paintings tell stories of those who survived on this land and remind us if we care for Country, even in the dry, she will care for us.
