From the aboriginal art museum......
"Dot painting originated 40 years ago back in 1971.
Geoffrey Bardon was assigned as an art teacher for the children of the Aboriginal people in Papunya, near Alice Springs.
He noticed whilst the Aboriginal men were telling stories they would draw symbols in the sand.
Bardon encouraged his students to paint a mural based on traditional dreamings on the school walls.
The murals sparked incredible interest in the community.
He incited them to paint the stories onto canvas and board. Soon many of the men began painting as well."
More partial cultural appropriation???
