Introduction


My name is Jamie-lee and I am studying Visual Communications (Bachelor of Design). Our course requires us to complete an indigenous Aboriginal art, culture and design course in order for us to gain understanding of other forms of art, and of course learn more about the art, culture and design of the indigenous people of our land. This was much to my dissatisfaction early in the semester. 

I had a very stereotypical view, that our indigenous art is nothing but dot-paintings. However through lack of knowledge comes ignorance, and since gaining knowledge on the subject I have come to understand the art, design and culture in a different way. I have found that there are some very interesting things about Aboriginal art, culture and design and I intend to highlight those things in my blog, and hopefully extinguish others ignorance on the topic.
