Students are asked to consider the following;

Drawing is so much more than pencil on paper. 

To draw is to make a mark: you may scratch and stick, write and sew, extend and dissolve, be still and perform, provide and take, capture a moment and tell a story, maintain rules and push boundaries.

All selected finalists will be exhibited in the ANU School of Art & Design Gallery from 18 August until 12 September, with a public announcement of the winner on Wednesday 20 August 2025.
