The Mystery of Kimberley Rock Art
Dr. June Ross (Australia)
The beauty and scope of Kimberley rock art is universally acknowledged. Theories have been proposed to explain the content and stylistic changes evident in the art; some far flung and seemingly plucked from the air and others based on decades of data collection. I focus on explanations for the stylistic changes evident in Kimberley rock art and the roles art played in mediating the dynamic social and environmental changes faced by past Aboriginal societies.
