MAYOR AWARD First Prize: Fire Path Artist: David Taylor “Environmental issues are very important to me,” said David, who had decided he wanted to be an artist by age four. “As well as painting, I do a lot of writing about environmental issues and in 2019 I won a Banjo Patterson Award.” David constructed Fire Path on a black canvas, which made for a striking contrast between the colours representing the different elements (red-fire, yellow-air, blue-water and green-earth), as well as allowing for the work to be interpreted as either night or day.
Mayor Award winner David Taylor.
