Congratulations to Raquel Ormella (Painting lecturer and Honours Convenor at the SOA&D) for taking out the Sunshine Coast Art Prize at the Caloundra Regional Gallery.

The Sunshine Coast Art Prize is a national contemporary acquisitive award presented by Sunshine Coast Council. Raquel's winning piece Worker's Blues #1 was inspired by the idea of workers being temporarily imported into remote locations and as a consequence, exported from their families.
