The dotted motifs of much of today’s Aboriginal modern design work has become
the trademark of the contemporary Aboriginal Art movement. Its iconic status
developed from a culture stretching back into the history of an ancient land,
evolving and weaving into desert dreamtime stories. One of the popular imagery
of bush tucker include the iconic Witchetty Grubs, one of the traditional bush
foods enjoyed both raw and cooked by the Australian Indigenous Aborigines. In their depiction of the Witchetty, many artist stamp their own unique way of portraying the
grub,
whether it is a close facsimile of the insect, a unique clustering arrangement
or a modern take that may emphasise a particular pattern. |
