Congratulations to Simone Arnol & Bernard Singleton for being selected as finalists in The Brisbane Portrait Prize 2022.
This photograph depicts Bernard Singleton Jnr’s niece coated in a layer of coarse white clay. Known as medicine clay, this revered material is often used by members of Bernard’s family for the treatment of sore bellies, women’s business, and general wellbeing.
The Brisbane Portrait Prize is all about celebrating Brisbane portrait artists and their sitters, while encouraging public engagement with the arts.
