Circular motifs celebrating shared learning in Aboriginal partnerships across the region.

Engaged to design the 2023–24 Aboriginal Partnership Plan Implementation Report, I created a cover artwork symbolising the many organisations, groups, and networks that support Aboriginal community in the region. Circular forms reference our knowledge systems and the benefits of shared learning, while the report itself serves as a milestone in the council’s long-term commitment to culturally respectful engagement.

You can view the City of Launceston’s Aboriginal Partnership Plan Implementation Report online with my artwork throughout.

Caleb Nichols-Mansell

Caleb Nichols-Mansell moves between Country, culture, and contemporary practice — weaving stories from land, spirit, and community into powerful visual languages. As a proud Palawa man, Caleb's work bridges the ancient and the evolving, reimagining Aboriginal knowledge systems through design, public art, and digital storytelling.

His practice is rooted in Country and carried forward through site-responsive interventions, graphic and surface design, and large-scale public commissions. Through intricate textures, flowing linework, and bold organic forms, Caleb invites reflection on identity, resilience, and the enduring strength of Palawa people.

His works have been commissioned by leading institutions across Australia, including MONA, University of Tasmania, Arts Tasmania, Australian Fashion Week, Lifeline Australia, and the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra; embedding stories of survival, connection, and contemporary Aboriginal identity into the cultural, public, and built environment.
