Fimble (Inventor)
Fimble's mind never stops asking questions about how things work. Instead of running around playing games, Fimble prefers to spend his time pulling things apart and then putting the pieces back together in order to make something entirely new.


Milo (Sailor)
His grandfather was a sailor, his father was a sailor, and so Milo is a sailor. The only problem is that he is afraid of getting wet. Milo loves to feel the cool sea breeze flapping through his ears, but the thought of swimming in the ocean reduces him to a trembling mess.


Fanelli (Adventurer)
Fanelli's playful nature and thirst for adventure ensures that no two days are alike. She is innovative, extremely clever and can find the solution to almost any problem. If there is a mountain to climb, an ocean to dive, or a sky to parachute, you can be certain that Fanelli will be there.


Periwinkle (Wildlife Rescuer)
Periwinkle may be very young but that has not stopped her achieving great things. She runs the Carrara Island Wildlife Rescue Centre, and even though she has more animal friends than she can count, she knows all of their names off by heart.


Pecan (Writer)
Pecan is a collector of information, reading countless books from his vast library. With his photographic memory, Pecan never has to read the same thing twice. He always has time for his friends and loves nothing more than sharing his latest research over a warm cup of hot chocolate.


Jac Jac (Scientist)
"Facts are what is needed. Cold hard facts!" Nothing describes Jac Jac better - it is what he lives by. Jac Jac enjoys reading, but he has no time for stories. He reads from complicated books larger than his head and prides himself with his ability to recite the periodic table backwards.


Rumbi (Pilot)
Activities on the land easily bore Rumbi, so she spends as much time as she can in the sky. From her little airfield by the sea, Rumbi can fly wherever she wants to go. A bit of a daredevil, Rumbi loves to show off her acrobatic skills, but she never lets that get in the way of helping her friends.


Pandacake (Artist)
Pandacake is an artist, and an expert one at that! Like most artists, Pandacake is often misunderstood. She tries to tell people what she is thinking, but somehow it never comes out right. Luckily, her paintings tell more than any words could. She is sweet and kind natured, and loves to explore things that nobody else notices.


Junee (Magician)
A born entertainer, Junee loves being in front of a crowd. He has travelled far and wide in search of the latest and greatest magic tricks to wow his audiences. With his lightning quick hands and caravan full of surprises, you can never tell what he is going to do next.

Now that you know the Pecanpals a little bit better, how about getting to know the artists behind them?

Noferin is the collaboration of two parallel minds: that of Candy and Nicho.

Trained as a Graphic Designer - BDes (VisComm); BvisComm (First Class Hons) - Candy possesses an acute understanding of solid design principles. She brings these skills into her paintings; a medium that she finds to be more expressive and free.

Studying an Environmental Science degree, Nicho spends every spare moment developing the world of Noferin in a literary sense and through wooden sculpture.

Together, they delve into the whimsical world of Carrara Island and its inhabitants - meshing the fine art, design and literary worlds together in a complete and unique package.

"Our world is a living environment that grows everyday. At first, we were shaping and creating the boundaries of Carrara Island, but now the world is so vivid and real to us that our role has changed from creator to story-teller. We are the vessels for telling the stories of Carrara Island and the unique characters that call it home. Noferin wishes to take the audience on a journey of discovery that uncovers something new and quite magical with each chapter of this perpetual narrative."
