Cups That Tell A Story
Customers and cafes around Australia have expressed their love for our original Indigenous Art BioCup, often called the Turtle Cup by coffee lovers.
Excitingly, we’re updating this range with three new cup designs from local Indigenous Artists – Davinder Hart, Kulka Fahey and Amy Saunders. These cups are due to launch ahead of NAIDOC week (7th -14th July 2024) and will continue to be updated every 6 months.
Every Indigenous Cup you buy directly supports CorporateConnect.AB's pro-bono work, assisting Indigenous youth. Perfect for having a yarn over a coffee.
Spotlight on the Artists
Our Indigenous Art Series Cups will be updated every 6 months to showcase a range of talented artists around Australia.
Now, let’s introduce the artists on BioPak’s Indigenous Art Series Cups, launching ahead of NAIDOC week 2024.
Davinder Hart
Davinder Hart is a Bibbulmun/Ngemba man born in Perth – the south-west region of the Noongar people. At age 21, Davinder moved to far north Queensland to begin an art career. Today, his work is inspired by Mother Earth, The creator Biami and the old ancestors.
“My Artwork is strongly connected to the earth, as is my culture. We pass down our knowledge of the land and how to care for it and we share it with everyone. The ‘Sharing Knowledge’ paintings represent this.”
At BioPak, we’re excited to showcase Davinder Hart’s art in our new Indigenous Art Series Cups.
Kulka Fahey
Kulka Fahey is an award-winning Aboriginal artist currently located on Awabakal land, originally from Biripi and Worimi Country.
“Over the past year I have been dedicated to working hard to create a name and brand to showcase my artwork and heritage; with the immense desire that one day my art, passion, can be my life work and continue to bring happiness to myself and others everyday through my paintings and designs.”
At BioPak, we’re excited to showcase Kulka Fahey’s art in our new Indigenous Art Series Cups.
Amy Saunders
Amy Saunders is a proud Biripi Woman, located on Darkinjung Land.
“I am a Mother of four and have been painting and being creative for as long as I can remember. Some of my biggest inspirations are from my very own family, my Grandmother Faith, Aunties, Uncles and Cousins.”
At BioPak, we’re excited to showcase Amy Saunder’s art in our new Indigenous Art Series Cups.

Printed on Home Compostable BioCups
Our Indigenous Art Series are now available in Single Wall Industrially Compostable (AS4736) and in Double Wall Home Compostable (AS5810) BioCups, available in 8oz, 12oz and 16oz and will continue to be updated every 6 months.
Customers can savour their morning coffee, admire beautiful Indigenous Art, and spark an important conversation. Then once finished with our Indigenous Art BioCup, it can be disposed of in a home compost bin where it can break down along with your food scraps to turn into nutrient-rich soil food!
Our Indigenous Art Series will present three different artists every 6 months, with a regularly changing program in each carton. Distributors, cafes and customers will be surprised and delighted by the artworks they find.
