“I feel a deep affinity for country and community and use my art, fashion and photography as a platform to raise awareness of social justice issues, including Indigenous rights and women's rights. I find that creativity and community go hand in hand and one would not exist without the other, so I love being able to use my art as a force for good in the world,” said Bobbi.
Following this ethos at every step, Bobbi has collaborated with renowned organisations including Amnesty International, Adobe, Getty Images, The Body Shop, Nikon, Apple, Google, Warner Music, Triple J, Kotug, Canva and Refinery29. This year Bobbi was recognised for her leadership and impact, winning Entrepreneur of the Year in the 2023 Women Changing the World Awards.
We look forward to welcoming Bobbi to Tarni, learning from her vast experience, and seeing her impact in our work to connect Indigenous communities with opportunities, no matter the distance.
