As an Emerging Artist, Roni comes from a very creative family, so it was only time before she became inspired and followed herself. Roni favours creating 3D work, drawing on her love of her family, country and current issues impacting Aboriginal people in Australia.
Roni has had artworks in exhibitions such as “Together, Walking Beneath the Night Sky”, 2017 Mandurah Summit with “Our Stories in Stitches”, has been selected three times for the Revealed Emerging artist exhibition.
