Golden Wattle

The Golden Wattle, Australia’s floral emblem, another absolutely beautiful flower. Native to this land, its more than just a flower - it’s a symbol of resilience, unity, hope and renewal. Blooming after fire and hardship, it reminds me of the strength that comes from new beginnings. Its blossoms are small delicate yet together create something quite special - a quiet reflection of the way community and country flourish in harmony.

This piece celebrates that spirit. Each tiny bloom has been stitched layering golds, yellows and earthy greens to recreate its vibrancy.

Another piece of wearable art - a way of carrying the brightness and strength of our native flora with every step.
