ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Nephi Denham is based on Girramay Country / Cardwell, North Queensland. The artist and artworker first started work with Girringun Aboriginal Art Centre in 2009, learning from his elders. Since then, Denham has continued developing his arts practice, and shares his skills as the Workshop Assistant for the centre. Denham's art practice predominantly spans ceramics and weaving. He often reinterprets the weaving style from his elders with new materials such as coloured wired and whipper snipper cable.
