Artist Profile
Sandy Pitjara Hunter is greatly admired for his fine and precise dot work and masterful use of colour. Like his sister Susan Pitjara Hunter, Sandy’s work usually consists of patterns of minute dots applied with a very fine pointed stick.
The son of Johnny Ngwarai Hunter and Molly Bula Hunter, Sandy was born on MacDonald Downs in December 1953 into the Alyawarr tribe. He now lives at Irrultja on Utopia and is married to Elizabeth Kamara Leo who is also artist. He is the brother of artists Susie, Annie, Bessie and Jessie Pitjara Hunter.
Sandy’s Dreaming is Caterpillar (Atlerlayt) which was passed down to him from his father. He also explores the subject of bush tucker. Sandy is a fine sculptor and carves animals such as echidna, birds, iguanas from the wood of the native Bean Tree.
Sandy has been widely exhibited throughout Australia.
