Drawing from her experiences living in regional Northern Australia, Cherini's work offers a unique perspective on the complexities of Australian identity. The figure of the bogan in Australia conveys the contemporary complexity of class (Paternoster, H. J., Warr, D., & Jacobs, K. 2018). Her embroidered pieces depict iconic symbols of "bogan" culture - from Bundy rum caps to Southern Cross tattoos - presented on jarring backgrounds and adorned with unexpected embellishments. The presentation itself plays with expectations, pairing high-art display techniques with quintessentially "bogan" elements.
