Indigenous fine arts

Indigenous fine arts refer to the creative works produced by Indigenous peoples, reflecting their cultural heritage, stories, symbols, and traditions. These arts encompass various forms such as painting, sculpture, beadwork, textiles, and carvings, often emphasizing connection to land, spirituality, and community. Indigenous fine arts serve to preserve and celebrate cultural identity, educate others, and promote artistic expression that respects traditional practices while sometimes innovating. They are vital for cultural continuity and contribute significantly to broader artistic landscapes, offering authentic perspectives rooted in Indigenous history and worldview.
