Drawing from the natural environment, Dana Kinter has created a signature style that embraces Australia’s native flora and fauna. Dana employs a subdued colour palette with emphasis on the natural characteristics of her materials. Her art reflects a harmonious blend of influences, from the bold confident brushwork of Indigenous Australian painting to the geometric and floral patterns of Islamic art and the intricate repetitive designs of woodblock hand printing found in North India and Japan. Dana's pieces carry a spiritual essence, complemented by carefully curated titles drawn from the works of renowned poets such as Ghalib, Neruda, Elia, and Rumi.
Collaborations include Gorman clothing in 2017 and 2019, Adairs homewares in 2020 and 2021, and Tasting Australia in 2024. Explore Dana's original artworks, limited edition art prints, artist cards, scarves, handbuilt ceramic and other treasures in the shop.
Whilst travelling through India creating handmade woodblock textiles Dana has created bonds with many of the makers, now offering curated tours bound to capture your heart and imagination. Handcrafted tours based on the places she fell in love with during her travels. What makes these tours extra special is the opportunity to participate in unique hands-on workshops. Hosted by artist Dana Kinter and accompanied by local tour guides. -
