Australian Indigenous sensory knowledge systems in creative practices
Abstract
The process of making is transmitting knowledge through an act of doing. Perceiving the body as a multisensory being pushes Australian Aboriginal artistic encounters that challenge other ways of thinking and doing. This article explores the nexus between Indigenous knowledge and creative practice as an embodied theoretical framework based on the human senses that may assist artists in deconstructing their current conventical thinking and broaden their interaction by deeply connecting with self and the environment. This article aims to highlight Indigenous practice-based methodologies that can inform the artist to practice research and teaching resources. Examining Indigenous creative knowledge systems can enable artists to experience not only an acquisition of content of Indigenous practices but develop a unique methodological Indigenous approach to how our senses offer a valuable contribution to the making experience.

摘要
制作的过程是通过做的行为来传递知识。把身体看作是一种多感官的存在，促使澳大利亚原住民与艺术相遇，挑战了其它的思维和行为方式。本文探讨了土著知识和创造性实践之间的联系，作为一个基于人类感官的具身化理论框架，可以帮助艺术家解构他们目前的传统思维，并通过与自我和环境的深度联结增加人与自然的互动。本文旨在强调基于土著实践的方法论，可以为艺术家提供实践研究和教学资源。对土著创造性知识系统的研究可以使艺术家不仅通过体验收获土著实践的内容，而且发展出一种独特的土著知识方法论，即我们的感官如何有益地促进了创作体验 。
