Artist and Designer in Devotion to the Goddess and the Moon
Artist and Designer in Devotion to the Goddess and the Moon
Based on Gundungurra land in the Southern Highlands of Australia, Nadiah is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and mother whose work honours the sacred feminine and the cycles of the moon.
With over two decades of experience in design and creative direction — including founding the men’s apparel brand Cocksox® — her creative journey has evolved into a path of devotion, sustainability, and feminine awakening.
A period of burnout and illness became a turning point, leading Nadiah to question the relentless pace of modern life. Her discovery of the ancient Celtic lunisolar calendar awakened a deep remembrance of cyclical living, a rhythm that honours both rest and creation. From this came her first Lunar Diary, a project that continues to grow and guide others in reconnecting with the wisdom of the moon.
Through her work with Casa Vulva and Tune to the Moon, Nadiah weaves art, ritual, and ancient myth into modern forms of expression — jewellery, workshops, and lunar tools that help women return to their bodies, intuition, and creative power.
Her mission is to help women create, live, and work in harmony with the cycles of nature, nurturing a way of being that is both grounded and sacred, productive and peaceful, feminine and whole.
The creative practice behind Tune to the Moon
At the heart of Nadiah's creative practice is a fascination with the stories, symbols and goddesses that have travelled through human history.
Her paintings and illustrations draw inspiration from mythology, ancient cultures and the natural world, often exploring the feminine, the sacred and the relationship between humans and the cycles of nature.
She is particularly drawn to the stories that existed before, or beyond, the dominant narratives of patriarchy, and to what these older stories might still have to teach us.
Through painting, illustration, storytelling and creative workshops, Nadiah explores the possibility of remembering another way of seeing ourselves and the world: one in which the feminine is honoured, the body is sacred, creativity is a form of devotion, and life is understood as cyclical rather than simply moving in a straight line.
This creative exploration sits beneath everything she creates through Tune to the Moon.

"I was amazed by how much energy returned when I shifted away from the modern linear time model and began to follow natural cycles. Connecting to the lunar cycle feels so natural because the energy of the moon mirrors our own. For example, the heightened energy of the full moon resonates with our own increased vitality, while the reflective energy of the dark/new moon aligns with our need for rest and introspection. Embracing this rhythm has been truly transformative."
