Bindimu

Bindimu is a multidisciplinary artist, and emerging curator. Her practice includes works on bark and canvas, sand painting, DJing and soundscapes with a current focus on traditional weaving and wearable/fibre art, prioritising the preservation of Indigenous arts practices such as fibre processing while living in a colonial landscape. Connection to Country is the foundation of Bindimu’s career as a full-time artist.
 

Building on mastering her practice as a weaver / fibre artist, Bindimu was the recipient of a 2023 Create NSW Arts and Cultural to produce a new collection of wearable artworks entitled Numbuh exhibited at her first solo at Boomalli Aboriginal Art Gallery. Created with natural and raw fibers, natural dye pigments, the collection was a culmination of 34 individual pieces, the artworks were presented and modeled by six Indigenous performers in a runway style exhibition. The collection is described as ‘Blak Futurism’, an Indigenous perspective on the western ideologies of a post-apocalyptic world. In 2026, Bindimu is experimenting and developing a new collection of wearable art with non-Indigenous people in a cross-cultural and interdisciplinary collaboration to inspire non-Indigenous peoples to respect and protect their own ancestral culture and Country while respecting and protecting the unceded lands that they currently live on.
