WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We will be looking for a selection of interesting visual images, collected, drawn or made that express initial thoughts on the theme of Truth and Reconciliation and displayed on an A2 mood-board.

The images can be first hand, second hand or found and may include sketches, collages, photos and any other material which suggests initial ideas that can be developed for the project.

A panel of artists will select the winning students whose decision is final.
