Description

The 300ml Sentient Mug is a beautiful fusion of cultural heritage and modern design, featuring the captivating artwork of Hollie Johnson, a proud Gunaikurnai and Monero Ngarigo woman from Gippsland. A 2016 RMIT Bachelor of Photography graduate, Hollie’s design is rich with meaning and tradition.

The artwork symbolises the interconnectedness of life’s journeys, using triangles and diamonds to represent men, and circles and semicircles for women, all within a unique pattern of Black, Red, and Yellow to honour ancestral ties. The design reflects the evolution of nature – from the sun (yellow), land (green), and sea (blue), with intertwining lines representing the paths we take, both short and endless.

This stunning mug is not only a beautiful addition to your collection but also a meaningful connection to cultural storytelling. Perfect for enjoying your favourite drink while celebrating the rich narratives woven into every line and colour. Embrace the journey – and bring home the Sentient Mug today!
