The artwork

Kyle’s own design

The design on every Firelight bag is an original artwork by Kyle Wicker. The bag is printed from it, so the art you carry is Kyle’s, not a stock or licensed pattern.

The artist

Kyle Wicker

Ngadju artist · Great Western Woodlands, WA · Founder of Carry Culture

Kyle Wicker is a Ngadju artist from the Great Western Woodlands of Western Australia. Alongside his Aboriginal art, Kyle paints realism, like the eagles pictured here. He works traditionally with brush and paint, and digitally with pen and tablet, and he is always working to sharpen his skills.

Kyle founded Carry Culture and designed the brand and the Firelight artwork, so the whole business is 100% Aboriginal-owned and designed. Kyle is also part of Ngadju Dancers.

Ngadju Dancers is an Aboriginal-led troupe based in Norseman, WA. For around 30 years they have shared Ngadju culture through dance, story and connection, with school incursions, cultural awareness training and performances. They have danced at school assemblies, festivals and street parades, and at the Sydney Opera House.

Buying a bag is one way to support the troupe financially.
