I am excited to learn that my artwork 'Shadows II' has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Clayton Utz: LAUNCH Art Award 2010.

This work was constructed from metal pins and board. Because its composition relies on shadows cast by the pins, the work is transformed by different lighting conditions. When seen in natural light, the shadows - and composition - evolve over the course of the day depending on the angle and intensity of available sunlight.

It will be shown in the Clayton Utz offices at Riparian Plaza until July 2011, alongside work by the other finalists: Anita Hochman, Ari Fuller, Carly Scoufus, Chris Howlett, Dane Beesley, Haruka Sawa, Jan Van Dijk, Jason Fitzgerald, Jim McDowell, Lyndal Hargrave, Meaghan Shelton, Kirra Jamison, Nikola Sweet, Paul Mumme, Nicola Moss, Steven Vella, Sonya Peters, Stefan Dunlop, Sandra Kane, Vivienne Kelly, Rebecca Ross and Simone Eisler.
