lAND.
First and foremost, all of Viv Benchick’s work is illustrated, printed, and shipped from sovereign and unceded Wurundjeri Land of the Kulin Nation in the Treaty era. I pay my utmost respects to Elders past, present and emerging.

Modern Slavery.
The fingerprints of modern slavery/forced labour is everywhere: in our pantries, devices, and closet.

Viv Benchick makes every effort to make product sourcing and printing transparent on every listing (and sourcing from manufacturers with transparent practices, themselves), with a sincere commitment to seeing a world where modern slavery is abolished entirely.
