Congratulations to Nicci Haynes, Technical Officer in Printmedia & Drawing, announced as a finalist in this year’s Dobell Drawing Prize.

The Dobell Drawing Prize is the leading drawing exhibition in Australia and an unparalleled celebration of drawing innovation. Presented in partnership with the Sir William Dobell Art Foundation (SWDAF), the biennial prize explores the enduring importance of drawing within contemporary art practice. The exhibition is part of the NAS Festival of Drawing, a biennial event organised by the School’s Drawing Department. The festival includes talks, workshops and a research symposium. 26 March – 22 May 2021, National Art School, Sydney.

Nicci Haynes first studied science at University College Cardiff, Wales, and then later Visual Arts at the ANU School of Art & Design. Nicci is based in Canberra and has an art practice that ranges from print, drawing, artists’ books, awkward little videos and crazy electronic constructions being variously brought into service as vehicles for her explorations.
