About Kyra Togo
Kyra Togo is a proud Minyungbal, Tagalaka, and South Sea Island woman. Her medium of expression is weaving, favouring fibers that are most available in her surroundings, such as Pandanus, Lomandra, as well as Raffia. Preserving cultural fiber knowledge, Kyra creates woven pieces that embody beauty in functional artworks. She carries the continuation of weaving craft passed down by her ancestors and is now able to pass that on to her three children while living on Country. On her journey of reclaiming ancestral knowledge and traditional ways of being, through song, dance, and story, weaving is an essential practice that helps her to realign her spirit, to remember the stories of her old people, and to honour and respect Country. Never harming or taking more than is needed to create art and woven works is essential to this practice.
