Independent (Tanya Karpany)

I am a Ngarrindjeri Florist who started my business Mumeruki Ruwi in 2024. I aim to provide strength and comfort to First Nations and non-Indigenous people by creating floral arrangements that reflect Country and culture, thus acknowledging and showing respect for the Ancestors of this land. My floral arrangements respect the use of Native Australian flora in a blend of mixed Native plants. My artwork and traditional weaving artistry is incorporated into many of Mumeruki Ruwi's creations and products. Each arrangement is designed not just for it's beauty, but for the story it tells about the land and the First Nations people.

My core motivation is to deepen my understanding of sustainability within the floral industry and design arrangements and work practices that are environmentally sound, all while integrating and sharing the profound wisdom of Indigenous knowledge.
