About the Collection & Melanie Hava

Melanie Hava is a talented Aboriginal Artist, based in Far North Queensland. Her artwork is influenced by her diverse cultures and experiences in the outback, rainforest and reef country.

 Melanie collaborated with Greenigo to create the Jigay (Earth) Collection comprising wood cover notebooks, journals and for the very first time, wood bookmarks.

 In her own words – “I present to you, Jigay Collection because everything alive on earth comes from the earth. This collection consists of some of my favourite Australian birds and animals to paint. Our ‘old ones’, our ancestors lived as one with their country and the earth provided for them. Our native birds and animals still live as one with the earth and its fauna and the earth always provides for them. The closer we are connecting with our surrounding nature and earth, the more happiness and serenity we find in ourselves and our lives.”
