M&S Textiles - Indigenous Prints $24 Metre

Aboriginal Art is one of the more ancient traditional arts in the world, going back approximately 50,000 years.

In early days, Aboriginals did cave painting, rock painting, and sand or ground painting. The newer generations use acrylic paints on canvas to portray their Dreamtime. These Aboriginal artworks are sought after not only in Australia but worldwide. According to Aboriginal mythology, Dreamtime is the era when the world was dark. There was nothing on earth; the soil was soft. This was when the forefathers sprang up from underneath the soil and started building most of the requirements for their needs and that of future generations. They built mountains, rivers, waterholes, trees, and light gardens.

M&S Textiles have had the privilege to work with these creative artists in making their stories heard and in combining their memorising with art along with quality fabrics, we are able to immortalise their stories.
