Zara is a proud Yorta yorta woman who is a 3rd generation indigenous artist. Following in the footsteps of her father and great grandfather. Zara’s great grandfather spent his childhood growing up on the Cummeragunja aboriginal mission on the Murry River, before moving to Tasmania in his early 20s. Zara was born in Hobart, Tasmania in 2012 and lived there until 2017. Since that time she has been living on Boonwurrung country, in south Gippsland, Victoria. Zara is an emerging artist, having started drawing and painting from a very young age under the guidance of both her father and great grandfather. Zara also enjoys training at the local Sang-Rok judo club, where she has been selected to represent the state of Victoria at the Australian national titles for 2025. This will be Zara’s third year displaying her artwork for NAIDOC week. Zara continues to show her passion for her culture and heritage through her artwork.
