About the Author

Rachael Sarra’s vibrant creative practice embodies her experience as a proud mixed race, First Nations woman from Goreng Goreng Country. Driven by a belief that art and design are vital to communication, connection and culture, Rachael invites us to see the world through her eyes with bold colours and dynamic contours. Her distinct contemporary style is resonating around the world, and challenging societal perceptions of Aboriginal art and identity.

Rachael is a change-maker. She is redesigning how First Nations businesswomen navigate success while anchoring their business in culture. Building a business bigger than herself, she is committed to significant charitable donations and pro-bono work that has a tangible impact back into the community.

When values align, Rachael sees collaboration as an empowering way to foreground First Nations voices through meaningful partnerships with major brands and organisations. She has worked with high-profile clients including Tourism Australia, Kmart, Matrix, Lush Australia and UK, The Mills Foundation and Australia Post.

Since graduating with a Bachelor of Visual Communication Design from the Queensland College of Art and being awarded a Griffith University 2022 Outstanding Alumni Award,  Rachael has produced significant public artworks, is an award winning children’s book illustrator and author, delivered major brand collaborations and a TEDx talk. Her work is held in corporate, public and private collections around the world. Rachael integrates her creative practice with community leadership that empowers her communities to tell their stories.
