Gifted the name Muguy, meaning constant in her traditional language, Mya is always seeking to further her cultural knowledge.

Mya was born and raised in Greater Shepparton and holds a deep respect for the Country of the Yorta Yorta and Bangerang peoples as it carries many of her childhood memories.

As a Dulguburra Yidinji woman, she has a strong connection to her mother’s Country, the rainforest in and around the crater lakes of the tablelands, inland of Gimuy (Cairns).

A contemporary artist across various mediums, Mya enjoys experimenting with textures and colours in reflecting her experiences and the stories her mother tells her of ‘home.’
