Yarrin - The Fresh Collective

Yarrin (water current) design was especially adapted for application onto coffee cups for the newly opened takeaway spot ‘Kiosk’ at Sydney Modern. This digital artwork responds to place and ideas of convergence, and connects to narratives associated with water (where saltwater meets freshwater). With Kiosk’s focus on light bites using Indigenous ingredients and a menu developed by Gamilaroi Elder Aunty Beryl Van-Oploo (who has championed bush tucker-style food for half a century), this commission was a beautiful opportunity to infuse stories of place for locals and international visitors alike to celebrate First Nations food story and local knowledge in useful everyday ways.
