Wellborn

Wellborn is an indigenous Ngarabal/Celtic artist, culture and expression are an integral part of who he is.

The name Wellborn comes from his father’s Welsh heritage and means firstborn son and young warrior. It is also another way of saying his birth name.

Self-taught Wellborn comes from humble beginnings. From an isolated and small country town Wellborn and his craft were something that clearly developed over time, with every endeavor only bringing him closer to his goal, of self-discovery and connection. Most of his life expression has been his shield yet through music and Visual arts have grown into an element used for connection rather than isolation. Wellborn strives to convey how he sees reality and the effects of colonialism on his country and his culture.
