Breathtaking photos of Aboriginal newborns and pregnant women in the outback show the beauty of indigenous sacred rituals Amazing photos have emerged of Aboriginal newborns with their mothers in traditional surroundings Australian photographer Bobbi-lee Hille, 29, has paid homage to her Indigenous culture with stunning images The mesmerising photographs give an insight into the true Aboriginal culture, traditions and lifestyles
‘I wanted to photograph Indigenous babies and bellies to create awareness of our beautiful culture and people,’ Ms Hille said. ‘It’s celebrating Indigenous culture and new life through photography. It is very important to me to keep our culture alive, to promote awareness and show how beautiful the traditions are.’ The mother-of-three, from Perth in Western Australia, believes her project called Milyali Art - meaning newborns in 2015 - is even more important as mainstream education and that the media often neglects Aboriginal culture.
‘I wish there was more focus on Aboriginal studies in schools and more cultural awareness,’ she said.
'Usually only the negatives are focused on and because of this a lot of Australians have no idea about true Aboriginal culture, traditions or lifestyles.
'They see a stereotyped one-sided story and make up their minds.’
