Oh hey, let us introduce you to Mazana Abraham—a Brisbane-based resin wiz making magic under the name Flowature. If her name doesn’t ring a bell yet, her eye-popping, vibrant creations will.
Each piece? A little slice of wearable art, handmade with so much love you can almost feel it. Flowature isn’t just about looking good (though, hello, you will). It’s about celebrating your quirks and telling your story through jewellery that feels like you.
We first crossed paths with Mazana back when we were stall buddies at the Finders Keepers Market in Melbourne. Picture this: us, bonding over Bruno Mars dance breaks (yes, it was as fabulous as it sounds). One song later, we knew we’d found a kindred spirit. Now, we’re absolutely buzzing to have her work in our shop for the first time.
So, grab your cuppa, settle in, and let’s dive into Mazana’s world—a place where resin meets individuality and every piece feels like it was made just for you.

Can you tell us about your creative journey?
My journey into the world of jewellery design wasn’t something I ever imagined for myself. Art had always been my sanctuary, a place where I found solace and healing. From overcoming challenges as a bullied kid hiding out in the art room, to battling illness in my teens and navigating the aftermath of reporting my sexual assault in my twenties. Art has been my guiding light—a transformative force that turned pain into beautiful self expression. Through wanting to help others find confidence and joy through colour and wearable art, it led me to Flowature.
Describe the Flowature aesthetic in one sentence:
Flowature is wearable art bursting with vibrant colours, intricate details, and unique designs for those loving, colourful souls who express themselves through fashion.
Where do you go for inspiration?
Pinterest is my go-to; I have countless mood boards for all areas of my life. I also find inspiration in traveling and nature.
"My style developed through experimentation. I found the most growth by trying new things and pushing myself to create something even more beautiful each time."
What puts you in the mood for getting creative?
Usually, it’s when I’ve been thinking about an idea, and then something clicks, giving me an urge to sketch and create. I love doing this on a slow, sunny Sunday morning with a pastry in hand. Now that I’m a full-time creative, I’ve learned that my creativity is always there, ready to be tapped into, depending on my energy levels.
Tell us about how you developed your unique style
My style developed through experimentation. I found the most growth by trying new things and pushing myself to create something even more beautiful each time. I believe there’s always a way to achieve what I envision; I just have to keep exploring and pushing boundaries.
What has been your most recent proud/pinch-yourself moment?
The most pinch-me moment was when the National Gallery of Australia reached out to feature my work in their store. They loved it so much that they placed my biggest wholesale order to date—over 300 pieces for their upcoming exhibition.
What do you hope people will feel when wearing one of your pieces?
I hope people feel immense joy and truly like their beautiful, confident, and amazing selves. I want Flowature to feel like an extension of their authenticity, making them feel at home within themselves.
Where can we see more of your work?
You can find my work online at Flowature Studios, and in shops at the Museum of Brisbane, GOMA, and the National Gallery of Australia.
