Sugar Bag Dreaming

Born on MacDonald Downs into the Alyawarre tribe, Sandy is admired for his fine and precise dot work and masterful use of colour.  He maintains the classical men’s tradition of meticulously laid out geometric lines and circles representing the track and marks of the ancestral journeys. 

His distinctive work consists of hundreds of thousands of carefully executed minute dots. He lives at irrultja on Utopia in the Northern Territory. He is the brother of other renowned artists, Susie, Annie and Jessie Hunter. His dreaming is Caterpillar (Aylperlayt).
