On this page I am going to list different tribal groups and the differences between their artworks.
The Wiradjuri tribe:
The Wiradjuri tribe comes from Central Western New South Wales and mainly uses the style of dot painting. They interpret their stories and beliefs focusing on the journey aspect of indigenous life and highlighting their totem and individuality.
These artworks are all produced by members of the Wiradjuri tribe, they include symbols of journey and movement and in some incorporate their totem.

The Yalanji Tribe:
The Yalanji tribe comes from Queensland rainforests and focuses more on their land and surroundings. They interpret their own culture in art through native animals and vegetation found in their communities.
These artworks from Yalanji tribe compare to the Wiradjuri tribes artworks because they focus on different areas and vegetation and also use different colours to represent their communities.

Both these tribes compare to non-indigenous artworks because non-indigenous people of Australia do not associate themselves in tribal groups but in different towns or countries. And in towns and countries the art style does not vary widely but is more decided by the individuals taste and ideas.
