This beautifully detailed work which stands on its own black pedistal has been hand carved from the wood of the local native Bean Tree. The artist, Sandy Pitjara Hunter, works from a large section of the tree-trunk and uses various chisels to shape it. He then applies feathery strokes to its head and dotting to its torso in various shades of acrylic paint.
