AMBER WALLIS AWARDED INAUGURAL WOLLUMBIN ART AWARD AT TWEED REGIONAL GALLERY

By Nicholas Thompson | October 5, 2022 |

Amber Wallis has won the inaugural Wollumbin Art Award at Tweed Regional Gallery for her painting ‘Ivy with eyes’ exhibited by the gallery at Sydney Contemporary 2022.
.
Judge Alison Kubler, curator and editor of VAULT magazine commented “This is such a richly complex painting; it melds figuration, abstraction, and portraiture. I love the atmospheric palette and how she has depicted her beautiful daughter. It’s deeply personal. A cautious sharing of herself”.
.
In addition to the $15,000 award, Wallis also receives a two-week residency at the Gallery’s Nancy Fairfax Artist in Residence Studio.
