Christine Winmar is a proud Noongar woman and contemporary Aboriginal artist from Western Australia. Born in 1965 in Midland, her skin name, Allawah, meaning “Stay Here,” reflects her deep-rooted connection to Noongar Country and culture. Christine’s work is grounded in her identity and her ongoing commitment to sharing the stories, symbols, and colours of her heritage through art.

Christine was taught to paint by her father, a respected Noongar artist and didgeridoo craftsman, who passed on to her many of the traditional techniques and cultural teachings that continue to influence her work today. With his guidance, Christine developed a strong foundation in Noongar design and storytelling, and she later expanded her artistic practice through experimentation with new materials, styles, and media — always maintaining a deep respect for her cultural traditions.

Christine spent several years living in the Kimberley region, where she was inspired by the landscapes and the artistic practices of Aboriginal artists from the Northern Territory, enriching her own creative expression.

By the late 1990s, Christine was exhibiting and selling her works through Aboriginal art galleries in Perth. Her first group exhibition took place in 2005 alongside fellow artists Mingi May Barnes, Geoff Lindsey, and Tjinanginy in Perth and Cottesloe. In 2009, she gained international exposure when her works were exhibited in Perth and San Francisco as part of the “Colours of Australia” exhibition.

Christine’s art practice reflects her versatility and creative spirit. She works across canvas, pottery, wood, and glass, often using vivid dot painting techniques to create bright, rhythmic compositions inspired by the natural world and her cultural heritage.


Artwork Story – Illawarra Flame Tree Dreaming

One of Christine’s recurring themes is the Illawarra Flame Tree, a powerful symbol in both Noongar and broader Aboriginal storytelling. Known for its brilliant red flowers, the tree represents passion, vitality, and the cycles of life and renewal. In Aboriginal Dreaming narratives, it is associated with fertility, strength, and the interconnectedness of all living things.

Also referred to as the Flame Kurrajong, the tree is admired for its lush, lobed leaves and vivid crimson blossoms that light up the landscape in spring and summer. Traditionally, it provided shade and served as a gathering place — a living emblem of warmth, beauty, and resilience.

Through her vibrant use of colour and intricate dot patterns, Christine captures the energy and movement of the Flame Tree in bloom, paying tribute to its cultural significance and natural splendour. Her works honour the enduring spirit of the Noongar people and the powerful relationship between culture, Country, and creation.

Difficult to assemble, but a good basic divider
Color: Beige, Size: 22"- 4 Panel
I bought this to use as a background for when I have video calls. I wish I'd ordered the 6- or even 8-panel to block a little more, but that's my own error. It still covers a good portion of the room, so I'll make do, or maybe buy another at a later date to expand it. It looks ok, if a little plain. The fabric panels have creases in them from being folded and will need to be steamed or ironed out for a nicer look. It would be easy to make your own panels as well, if you're so inclined. The construction is decent. The frame is lightweight and if you don't angle the base supports the right way it may tip over if you extend it too far. The fabric panels aren't the highest quality, but are sturdy enough. They seem like they would handle being thrown in the wash well. The only issue I have with it is that it was so difficult to put together. The push latches that connect the poles don't push it well and hurt my hands. The fabric panels are sized to be extremely taut, which makes it very difficult to get them on the bars without forcing the bar to bend slightly. Overall, this is a good divider if you're looking for something simple and functional without being too worried about aesthetic. It's also a good, inexpensive base if you want to make your own custom panels.

Great Room divider
Color: Beige, Size: 34"- 3 Panel
Works well in separating my kids play area from my computer/office room. Easy to put together, height is perfect somewhat sturdy, looks great, light weight, not good if you are using it as a door, but if it is to stay in place than it is stable enough.

Exactly what I needed
Color: Black, Size: 34"- 3 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 34"- 3 Panel
It was easy to put together even without a power drill. Completely opaque. Only a very small slit between poles. I plan to add black electrical tape, but that's because I don't want nosies peeking through to see my screen. The height is beautiful. I was afraid it wouldn't be as tall as I needed. But it is perfect. I share a small office with a good buddy of mine. People passing by our door is distracting and invites them to speak to me. I needed something that would stop the former and prevent the latter, especially when I'm deep in concentration mode. The two panels are enough to block outsiders and the third panel I will employ when I can't even be disturbed by my officemate. It's the fastest and easiest signal not to disrupt me at all. 10/10

Packaging contents
Color: Grey, Size: 34"- 3 Panel
Item is as described however this one appeared to be open and some parts possibly used. Example pole packaging mislabeled one had the letter K as a part there is no letter K item in the instructions. Another pole part had a taped on letter A which is completely different from the others thus indicating that it was opened or substituted. Finally after the partition was completely put together one of the bottom screw connection anchors came out making the partition unable to stand. I'm going to have to rig something up in order to get the anchor connected to the bottom panel. In closure the partion could be very acceptable and do the job if it was new and parts labeled correctly. I have pictures of all parts and packaging errors. Would buy again if new. I'm going to pursue some kind of compensation.

Great product
Color: Grey, Size: 34"- 6 Panel
This room divider is great. It was easy to put together. I was worried about it standing up right and not falling over. It stays up perfectly and is very easy to move and adjust to the shape I want it. Also, from one of the videos I watched it looked like the fabric was puckered in the panels. That is not the case at all. The fabric fits tightly in each panel for a nice smooth look. I would definitely recommend this and would buy again if needed.
