Amateur Winner - Helen Woodward
Judges comment: "The capacity of this black and white work takes the viewer out of daily life and into the world of the aged indigenous woman on her journey. By playing with space and geometry the artist brings the viewer into the restful state of the subject......................" Sara Colville
