Indigenous Art Today

Today Aboriginal Art takes on a contemporary look. Aboriginal artists across Australia combine the original techniques of using dot-work to paint and combined them with modern colours, to create a unique Australian style of painting that expresses Aboriginal means of communication, from thousands of years ago, in a contemporary form.
