Long before her rise to fame in 2016, Lyn-Al was recognised in her local community for her Aboriginal fashion creations. Since she was a little girl, she has used aboriginal fabrics, beads, painting techniques and more to create clothes and accessories. After high-school she launched her small business and soon caught the attention of reputed designers.
Today, she along with her brother Robert Young, Lyn-Al resides at Florence Peel Centre from where she develops paintings, textile creations and boomerangs. She also uses her residence to host workshops to empower young aboriginal artists. Most of Lyn-Al’s work is to depict the aboriginal identity through themes, textures and colours of her ancestral lands.
What’s more, her creations are majorly made to celebrate womanhood and provide protection and peace via them. At the heart of her creations, you can see fashion-art fusion and its effect on the person wearing them.
