Congratulations to gallery represented artist Naomi Hobson who was last night announced as the winner of the Queensland Regional Art Awards’ esteemed Mervyn Moriarty Landscape Award.

Responding to the concept of ‘Perspective’, invited artists were called on to consider the concept of perspective in its many facets, viewpoints and nuances.  The theme plays on a term known in the visual arts and relevant to our modern society.

The award includes a cash prize of $15,OOO, a two week residency at the Rockhampton Museum of Art, and a two week solo exhibition and reception at the Judith Wright Arts Centre hosted by Flying Arts Alliance.
