Abstract:
The art, design and cultural expression of Australia’s First Nations people is a powerful means of communication and education. The stories and knowledge behind Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artwork bridge gaps in language, history and understanding with the wider Australian community. While the art and design of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is an act of maintaining and sharing cultural expression, it is also a means of economic independence. Products that include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art and design generate benefits for manufacturers and retailers of these products as well as for the artists, their families and communities.
