Biography
Abigail has beenan artist with Bábbarra Designs since 2012 and became a member of the Arts Worker team in 2023. She comes from a strong line of talented artists, her mother is the late J.

Three generations of women from Abigail’s family worked together at Bábbarra Women’s Centre, sharing knowledge and creating new designs together. Abigail often prints Lino from her family collection, carrying on the memory of the women who came before her.
Abigail’s totems are Gungura (Spiral wind), Kunwardde (Stone country rocks), Yawkyawk ( young woman spirit) and Ngalyod (rainbow serpent) and she often celebrates wildflowers in her work.
