Abstract

Artistic creation is often influenced by personal experiences or cultural shifts, while historical and cultural backgrounds provide compelling evidence for exploring the narrative of Australian Indigenous cultural identity. The influence of Aboriginal art continues to expand globally, with its diverse expressions propelling it to new heights. As Australia's foremost multi-disciplinary artist, Archie Moore's work is deeply rooted in the broader context of Australian colonialism, racism, Aboriginal culture, and issues of cultural identity and relationships. Utilizing conceptual art as his medium, Moore delves into the exploration of depicting and understanding Aboriginal culture within contemporary art. This study uses the creative practice of Archie Moore as a case study, where qualitative data is drawn through archives and documents. Here reviews a series of representative Indigenous art practices by Archie Moore, whose conceptual art practices subverted the mainstream narratives of traditional Indigenous art. Through this exploration, the profound significance of Aboriginal art in a postcolonial context is revealed, highlighting its importance in contemporary discourse. This study acknowledges the significant diversity of Aboriginal art and can enhance awareness of the complexity of Aboriginal art and further Aboriginal cultural identities.

Abstract

Atherosclerotic disease significantly impacts patients with type 2 diabetes, who often present with recalcitrant peripheral ulcers. The angiosome model of the foot presents an opportunity to perform direct angiosome-targeted endovascular interventions to maximise both wound healing and limb salvage. A systematic review was performed, with 17 studies included in the final review. Below-the-knee endovascular interventions present significant technical challenges, with technical success depending on the length of lesion being treated and the number of angiosomes that require treatment. Wound healing was significantly improved with direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty, as was limb salvage, with a significant increase in survival without major amputation. Indirect angioplasty, where the intervention is applied to collateral vessels to the angiosomes, yielded similar results to direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty. Applying the angiosome model of the foot in direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty improves outcomes for patients with recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers in terms of primary wound healing, mean time for complete wound healing and major amputation-free survival.
