Design for Black Indigenous Futures

maya finoh: It is a pleasure to be in conversation with you! How would you describe yourself, the work you do, your lineage/ community, and some of your main values/principles?

OUMOULA MCKENZIE: My name is Oumoula Nanaiyu Mckenzie and I’m a Pitjantjatjara, Yankunytjatjara (Anangu), Warumungu, and Warlmanpa artist from central Australia. I grew up in Mparntwe (Alice Springs), and I use my art to try to empower my community and speak on the challenges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples face.

maya: How did you get into graphic design as a medium?
