At a Gala event this evening in the Burt Memorial Hall, The Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of Perth, Lisa Scaffidi announced the winner of the People's Choice - the most votes, and the winner of the commission for the public artwork.
Gil Bruvel - St George and the Dragon - received the most votes both online and at the exhibition.
The winner of the commission for a public artwork for St George's Cathedral is:
Marcus Canning and Christian Di Vietri - Ascalon.
The selection panel felt that this work emodied the Dean's vision for St George's.
The Dean is very appreciative of the incredible amount of hard work undertaken by the artists shortlisted - each of them a winner it is own right. It was a tough and well considered decision.
Please join us in congratulating the winner artists....now the work begins.
