About the Artist

Kiz Costelloe is a proud Mandandanji and Noonuccal woman. She was born and raised in Rockhampton, Queensland with her mum and sister, Nysh.

Her elders are her biggest inspiration and getting to carry on her Uncle’s legacy by pursuing art and sharing his name and stories is something she values very deeply.

Kiz has used her knowledge in art and health to make a difference in her
community by teaching people of all ages to believe in themselves
and that they can do whatever they put their minds to.

Kiz is very passionate about sharing her Indigenous culture, art
and teachings to kids all over the country in her vibrant educational
resources created in collaboration with Education National.
