Cassaria Young Hogan was born in Mparntwe (Alice Springs). Her mother is Susan Young, though artists Amanyi and Stanley Young have looked after her since she was a little baby. Cassaria grew up in Kalka community and attended school in Pipalyatjara. An emerging painter, her works tell the stories of bush trips- digging maku and making cups of tea on the homelands of her grandfather Stanley’s Country around the Wataru protected area, 100 kms south-west of Pipalyatjara.
