About
I’m Danielle Leedie Gray, a contemporary Aboriginal artist and graphic designer based in Ipswich, working with schools, councils and organisations across Australia.
My artwork draws on my culture, Country and my own experiences, exploring story and connection through bold colour and symbolism.
Alongside my art practice, I provide graphic design for organisations, including presentations, publications, marketing materials and workplace communications.
I’ve been creating digitally for more than nine years. My professional graphic design experience also informs how I approach my artwork, collaborations and workplace resources. In 2023, I was honoured to create the artwork for National Reconciliation Week, and in 2020 I was named Ipswich's Cultural Person of the Year at the Ipswich City Council Australia Day Awards.
Every artwork begins with listening. When we work together on a commission, we'll start with a conversation about your people, place and purpose, and together we'll shape that story into artwork that can live across reports, spaces and screens. I'll be clear about what's included, timelines and how stories are shared. Wherever you are in your reconciliation journey, you're welcome to ask me anything.
Ways to work with me:

"The story sits in the artwork long after the project ends."

Symbols I return to
People gathering
A circle surrounded by c's. It reflects unity: people coming together.
Travelling sign
Three circles joined by three lines. It reflects moving forward together.
Moving forward together
Every symbol starts with listening, and every project starts with a conversation.
