Aboriginal Australia
Aboriginal people
Aboriginal facts
First Aboriginals came to Australia
50.000 years ago
They have 200 different dialects
They speak English with aboriginal
words added
Their stories tell us about their
ancestors. (Dreamtime)
More facts
Music: they sing and play
didgeridoo, clapsticks and djembe.
Listen to some music.
Aboriginal Art
•Art is based on stories and symbols of
the dreamtime, the history of the
ancesters
•The art is used as a language, just like
dance and songs
•The stories teach about moral, good
and bad
•You need permission from the
storyteller to use their story
First artworks were made in sand, and
on rocks and on bark. They use ocre
to make paint. See the stones.
Later artworks were made on canvas
and board
Dots in artwork are like a secret
language
Aboriginals can earn money and get
more respected with their art.
Aboriginal symbols
Rock paintings and using ocre
Bark painting 1970
Making an Aboriginal inspired artwork
Drawing:
Trace the shape of the boomerang on an A3 paper with a pencil. Make
up a story about an animal and sketch this story in the back ground
behind the boomerang. Use the Aboriginal symbols to tell your story.
The boomerang will be painted another time with coloured dots.
Painting: Practise dotpainting on a boomerang. Firstly paint your
boomerang in an appropriate colour: brown or ocre. Have a look at
different paintings from real Aboriginal artists. You will be using the
following colours: ocre, white, yellow, red, black. To paint you will use:
skewers, filters as brushes.
What do you see? How do
they picture the landscape?
Michael Nelson Jagamara: Possum,Goanna and snake at Mt.Singleton, 1996
What do you think?
Home Learning task: Choose one image and
write down what you see /think (annotate)
I see goanna’s and snakes they
are after the eggs. There is a
travelling sign, the waterholes
are resting places. There are
possum tracks. It is a modern
painting because they use
colours which are not found in
the australian bush like blue
and green. So it is acryllic
paint. I like it because…
1. Use ocre rock on A5 piece of black paper and imitate some
aboriginal patterns ( from the sheets)
2. Sketch the shape of one wooden bird and colour in the patterns
Design the background of your landscape
picturing it from above
Use colours from the outback and
add a waterhole.
Colour waterhole when
background is dry.
Design your animal on black paper
and cut out
Decorate animal with patterns
