Songlines: Aboriginal Art and Storytelling

SONGLINES : ABORIGINAL ART AND STORYTELLING 

 

Not many people actually try to understand indigenous culture so I thought I would share this very short film about Australian Aboriginal art and storytelling. The Australian aboriginals survived thousands of years - through freezing temperatures and the the hottest of droughts. Their history is mind-blowing and I often shake my head in wonder! There are quite a few fabulous You Tube videos on this subject if you are interested.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SHARING:

                    WAYS OF EXPRESSION 

                    WAYS OF LEARNING

                    WAYS OF DOING

                    WAYS OF LIVING

                    WAYS OF GROWING

                    WAYS OF SURVIVAL

                    WAYS OF THE PAST

                    CULTURE

                    

                    HISTORY

                    SACRED CONNECTION

                    COMMUNITY

                    SURVIVAL

                    EARTH 

               

                    WATER

                    HUMANS

                      

                    ALL BROTHERS & SISTERS

                    GRATITUDE

                    COMPASSION

                    RESPECT

                    CARING

                    LISTENING

                    TEACHING

                    LOVING

                    WISDOM

                    PEACE,  HAPPINESS &  FULFILLMENT

                      

    We were all made by the same creator. We are all brothers and sisters wanting to be accepted, understood, respected and loved.                  

THE ARTS communicate feelings and opinions and allow the public to softly absorb ideas,  knowledge and wisdom. 

Through writings, and other forms of expression, stories are shared. 

Future generations can learn from past successes and failings. The children of today have opportunity to grow and expand their potentiality and it is through Art and Communication, steeped in soul expression, that expansion can be realized.
