The Barka Arts back story to these dolls:

“I myself, as well as many Indigenous people have fair skin. My family are mixed dark and light.

To me these dolls represent Identity!

And fall into the EYLF Outcome 1: Children have a strong sense of identity

I wanted more children to be able to connect and relate to the dolls. Dolls that represent different shades and meanings of our First Nations People.”
