Winner
Congratulations to Antoinette Brown winner of the 2025 Marie Dyson Award for her collection of graphite drawings.
Hannah said about the winning work “Museums and galleries are full of paintings and sculptures of mothers. However, art which communicates the actual experience of motherhood is much rarer. I think Antoinette has done an incredible job of articulating the unspoken aspects of motherhood in these incredible sensitive drawings”
Highly Commended
Hannah also gave a special mention to Kit Yan Chong for her innovative, kinetic drawings and Sri Nambiar for her highly evocative and atmospheric charcoal landscapes.
