I am very happy that my photograph is a Finalist in the Adelaide Hills Landscape Arts Prize 2019.

I am looking forward to seeing the exhibition of all 40 or so Finalists in a variety of medium at the Opening Event Dec 1^st at the Hahndorf Academy in the Adelaide Hills.

South Australian artists were invited to interpret their experience of the Adelaide Hills in ways that highlights and captures their awareness of its dynamic and diverse environment and landscape – natural, rural or urban – and its ever-changing seasons.

‘Sail right through me’ was taken in winter 2019 back where I grew up on the outskirts of Lobethal. In brief I was reminiscing on the still of night that was interrupted by cars. 40cmx60cm C-print on silver halide paper.

This Arts Prize was only launched in 2017 and is presented in alternate years to the biennial Heysen Prize for Landscape at the same venue. More details at the Hahndorf Academy website.
