Glenda
Nicholls
Glenda Nicholls is a Waddi Waddi, Ngarrindjeri and Yorta Yorta artist. A master weaver, Nicholls constructs elaborate sculptural works that connect the present with her ancestral past. She applies cultural weaving techniques acquired from her ancestors alongside intimate knowledge of the waterways, plants and grasses on her Country. As such, her works act as vessels that carry the stories and legacies of her family. Nicholls is determined to share her cultural knowledge with younger First Nations generations, seeing this exchange as crucial to ensuring cultural practices survive into the future.
