Cairns Taipans 24/25 Indigenous Jersey

Artist: Kevin Edmonstone - Yidinji Clan in Far North Queensland, Australia.

Kevin has connections to Palm Island and Varrabah where his birth parents are from.

He enrolled into art school at an early age, and began his artistic journey from there.

Kevin went to Tafe in Cairns in the 2000’s to start an Indigenous Art course, where he completed his certificate 111, Diploma and Advanced Diploma from 2004. He has developed his art style over the years to what it is today.

Jersey Design:

This design is about Far North Queensland – Kevin’s home, his culture, where he’s from.

The animals in the design are traditional food we hunt for, to eat at weddings, gatherings and funerals - they represent the sea.

Representing the land, are the feet we stand on and live. Kevin worked with the Taipans on the beautiful gradient, selecting yellow and oranges hue to represent the primary colour of the team complemented by his personal artistic style.

Rep Cairns Taipans story with pride in this Jersey. It features indigenous artwork representing the team and their story incorporated with the team wordmark on our premium, sports mesh fabric.
