Queen of the Ocean - Indigenous Doll Set

Celebrate art, culture, and storytelling with the Queen of the Ocean Dress, created in collaboration with Aboriginal artist Garry Purchase, a proud man of Dharawal, Bidjigal, and Dhungutti descent. Garry grew up in Sydney’s Eastern suburbs and was raised within the Aboriginal community of La Perouse. He is part of the renowned Timbery family, carrying forward a legacy of creativity and cultural leadership.

Garry’s modern approach to Aboriginal art blends personal journey, experiences, and social commentary, bringing a unique perspective to the King and Queen of the Ocean series. This dress transforms his signature ocean-inspired motifs into wearable art, capturing the movement, color, and energy of the sea while honouring Garry’s cultural heritage.

At Awe & Wonder, we are proud to collaborate with Garry to create pieces that celebrate creativity, culture, and connection. Ethically produced and thoughtfully designed, the Queen of the Ocean Dress allows you to wear a story as vivid and dynamic as the ocean itself.
