After the Congruous exhibition, my tutor Jane asked me to submit images to enter into the Freelands Foundation Painting prize 2021. I submitted this image of my work Transcend the Cube (2021). I think next time I would try to document the work better by using a photographers light, this would allow for the light to be spread more evenly throughout the space.

Image of Transcend the Cube (2021) submitted to the Freelands Painting Prize 2021.

02/05/2021 – I was nominated and then eventually shortlisted for the prize. Although i did not win, I am incredibly proud of having been asked to submit and to have been shortlisted. I never though my work could be recognised like this and it has spurred me on to submit to more open calls in the present and the future.
