Dream Team
ELLE Australia|August 2017

What do you get when you combine two designers, one gallery owner and an art-world legend? An Australian fashion collaboration that’s contributing to the conversation around Indigenous culture

It’s universally known that art and fashion go together like Beyoncé and Jay Z. And when technology is thrown into the mix? “Social media does powerful things,” says Adrian Norris, one-half of the duo behind Australian label Aje.

He and design partner Edwina Robinson are standing backstage before their resort 2018 show at the Art Gallery of NSW with Jade Torres, founder of Pwerle Aboriginal Art Gallery, an online initiative specialising in works by Aboriginal artists hailing from the Utopia region of the Northern Territory. Norris, an art-school graduate, had been following the gallery’s Instagram account closely when Torres – daughter of respected art dealer Fred Torres, granddaughter to renowned artist Barbara Weir and great-granddaughter to the legendary Minnie Pwerle – reached out to suggest a collaboration.
