Find an Outstanding Range of Aboriginal Designed Cotton Fabric in Melbourne
The ancestrally indigenous peoples of Australia are called aborigines, a colonial term introduced by the British. These people thrived with no contact from anyone outside of Australia for more than 40,000 years and developed some distinct artistic traditions during that time. The traditions lived with shocking consistency for many years, mainly due to a lack of contact with the outside world. That has given Aboriginal art a reputation as the oldest living artistic culture in the world.
So, going back approximately 50,000 years, Aboriginal Art is one of the more ancient traditional arts in the world. Aboriginal art has been widely studied and documented, but one area that is growing in popularity is textile art.
Aboriginals did cave paintings, rock paintings, and sand or ground paintings to portray their Dreamtime of moving places and showcasing their history of how they collected their food from nature by hunting and gathering. The newer generations use acrylic paints on canvas to portray their Dreamtime.
This unaltered art and craftsmanship still capture and sparks curiosity in any audience. With every painting comes a new story, a tale about the artist and his craftsmanship, an insight into the simple life, and an effortless manifestation of their fears, frustrations and desires. M&S Textiles have had the privilege to work with these creative artists in making their stories heard.
