Sabrina Spencer lives in the small Aboriginal community of Willowra, some 300 kilometres north-west of Alice Springs. Sabrina paints predominantly two major Dreaming stories one being the Bush Onion or Bush Medicine.

Sabrina paints in a reduced or monochromatic palette, when painting her stories. The bush onion is an important source of food that is collected by the women, and it grows around waterholes in Sabrina’s country.

Sabrina is proving herself to be a much sought-after artist with a very distinctive op-art style. Through repetition of pattern, Sabrina creates movement and depth and an overall contemporary aesthetic. In 2020, Sabrina exhibited at Art Paris.
