MAARA is proud to present the Resort 2026 Collection featuring an original print ‘Layers of Reddell’ by Kija & Ngarinyin artist Rebekah Treacy.
A visual artist based in the remote coastal town of Broome, Western Australia, Rebekah was born in Derby WA and spent her childhood and adolescent years growing up in the Kimberley region. As a Kija and Ngarinyin woman from her mother’s side, Rebekah has connections to the East and West Kimberley regions.

Rebekah’s style is inspired by the elements, patterns, colours and scenes of her hometown and surrounds, where she finds joy in taking photos during local adventures, using these as references to reinterpret paintings in her own unique style.
The unique beauty of the Kimberley environment has shaped and inspired Rebekah Treacy’s artistic practice.
Inspired by the rock landscape on Yawuru Country where the artist resides, in garment form the print appears to wrap around the body, giving the essence of 'wearing Country'
