Judge Stewart Geddes shared his insights on the winning pieces:
"I was particularly impressed by the ethical dimension to Hajnal's work, and its ambition and dynamism."
"Hannah Shrubb's Dried Gladioli showed technical virtuosity, and also a clear sense of design. I loved the way the flower and stalk forms occupy the rectangle, creating strong negative shapes as well as the presence of the forms themselves."
The exhibition will run from the 2nd January and come down on Saturday 25th January. The last full day will therefore be Friday 24 January.
