Aboriginal Art, created by Australia’s Indigenous peoples including Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders, is one of the world’s oldest continuous art forms. It preserves Aboriginal identity, spiritual beliefs, and history, often focusing on Australia’s natural environment and human life. This art form, developed over thousands of years, is globally recognized, especially for techniques like dot painting. Modern Aboriginal Art continues to evolve, gaining international acclaim.
