Giovanna Aryafara, founder of Samsara Furniture & Homewares, brings the receiver of her work on an adventure through her striking photography. The collection comprises of a range of imagery that expresses the flavours of her travels all over the world.

Giovanna’s travels began when she started Samsara in 1994 because of her dreams of owning her own business importing and retailing furniture and homewares. Over these years, Giovanna has built a brand that is now an award-winning leader in Asian furniture importing and retailing... and now her dream continues, focusing on her passion for photography.

The Gold Coast resident and business owner has taken a stand in second and third world country issues such as the development of cottage industry and sustainable industry in communities. In her travels to source her range of products, she has amassed a wonderful collection of photographic images that expresses her passion for the villages and communities in which she works.

With the release of the Samsara Collection in February 2008, Australians can share her journeys through one of 32 newly released greeting cards, along with an additional 28 greeting cards that will be released in July. In conjunction with Spirit Publishing, these cards will be available soon in retail stores nation-wide.
