Created by Chloe Lee from BarkaArts with the inspiration from her old Indigenous dance days, where the girls wore black, red or other coloured dresses and the boys wore the traditional Lap Lap.
Painted up in traditional Ocher; A clay rock made into a paste and painted onto our skin and clothing to be one with the land. Torres Strait Islander Dolls are in bright and beautiful coloured dresses and traditional mens grass skirts with flowers grown on the Islands, flower bands and Men's headdress called a 'Dhari'.
