An amazing and unexpected way to add art to your space, the Abstract Aboriginal Art VI Floor Rug x Tony Albert turns an iconic artwork into an innovative way to give any room a special talking point.

Collecting the fabrics used for his collage works over two decades, they enter his collection as vintage printed material, bedding, curtains, cushions, placemats, and wall hangings.

Albert turns the tables on history, cheekily yet assertively reclaiming these designs and motifs, termed by Albert as "Aboriginalia", to honour the subjects and voices of the work's original creators.

About the Artist

Over the past 10 years Australian artist Tony Albert has achieved extraordinary visibility and much critical acclaim for his visual art practice, which combines text, video, drawing, painting and three-dimensional objects. Examining the legacy of racial and cultural misrepresentation, particularly of Australia’s Aboriginal people, Albert has developed a universal language that seeks to rewrite historical mistruths and injustice. Albert’s work can be seen in major national and international museums and private collections.
