Hugo Barclay’s Choice Award

Artist: Melanie Berman

“Melanie Berman’s work drew me in to look for more. Curious to understand the interplay between shapes, colour and negative space.

Things rarely happen in isolation, the relationship of Berman’s compositions, her unconscious choices in mark making resonate deeply with the idea of exploring ones innate quest for truth and our existence.” Hugo Barclay
