Australia's oldest continuously operating Indigenous Art Centre, Ernabella Arts, has joined forces with lifestyle brand Kip&Co for a new collaboration.

Known for their vibrant designs and spirited approach to bedding and homewares, Kip&Co was proud to announce this month its new collaboration with Ernabella Arts that showcases culture and craft. The new collaboration brings together the artistry of seven talented artists, celebrating culture, community, and creativity in a beautifully crafted collection.

The collaboration also marks Kip&Co's second collaboration with Ernabella Arts, following the overwhelmingly positive response to the first collection in 2023. The success of the initial partnership highlighted the growing desire for products that hold deeper purpose and meaning.

Working with this talented group of artists for a second time has strengthened the bond between Kip&Co and the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands, providing a continued opportunity to celebrate and share the infinite talents of this special group.

The new Kip&Co x Ernabella Arts collaboration embodies a commitment to ethical and meaningful partnerships. Developed over two years, the collection honours the craftsmanship, cultural heritage, and creativity of the Ernabella Arts artists, each piece reflecting their ancestral stories and deep connection to the land.

Co-founder of Kip&Co, Kate Heppell, said she was both proud and excited to reveal the new collection.

"The artists and traditional owners generously allowed us to shoot the campaign on country, and it was so important to us to show the artworks amongst the surroundings that have inspired them. It's these moments in our Kip&Co journey that are the most important to us, we cherish these opportunities which move and shape us both creatively and as people," she said.

"The response to our first collaboration was overwhelmingly positive, so we're extremely proud and excited to be able to share the next Kip&Co x Ernabella Arts collaboration with you."

"Working with this amazing group of artists for a second time has allowed us to establish a longer term and more meaningful connection with the APY Lands and has given us an opportunity to further showcase the infinite talents of this special group. We're bringing back some of your favourite pieces from the first collection, but have plenty of newness in there too with fresh prints, colours and products including towels, bath robes, organic cotton bedding and casual apparel for adults. As always though, the spirit of independence, adaptation, creativity and transformation shines out and we are so grateful for the artists (Carlene Thompson, Malpiya Davey, Rupert Jack, Michelle Lewis, Langaliki Lewis and Lynette Lewis) whose art tells the ancestral stories of their beautiful country and culture."

Featuring everything from plush bath robes and towels to organic cotton bedding, table linens and cotton sleepwear, the vibrant collection features something for everyone. From evocative print and patterns to rich, joyful colours, the collection has been designed to inspire and connect, making it perfect for any living space, home, or gifting.

The seven featured artists—Alison Lionel, Carlene Thompson, Langaliki Lewis, Lynette Lewis, Malpiya Davey, Michelle Lewis, and Rupert Jack— showcase their distinct perspectives and artistic interpretations, reflecting the spirit of their country and culture.

In addition to new products and designs, Kip&Co has reimagined some fan-favourite pieces from the first collaboration such as throws, cushions, apparel and sleepwear, whilst introducing fresh designs and product lines, including baby cot sheets and bedspreads.

In 2025, this collaboration isn't just about beautiful products—it's about supporting community and preserving culture. Kip&Co and Ernabella Arts share a commitment to ethical practices, with 50% of all profits directly benefiting Ernabella Arts, supporting the Pukatja Community in the far northwest of South Australia.

"Collaborating with Ernabella Arts has been both humbling and inspiring. We are honoured to share their unique stories through this collection," says Heppell.

The Kip&Co x Ernabella Arts collection launches Tuesday 22nd April, available online and at select stockists.
