JADA Kids Trail

I was contracted to create a ‘Kids Trail’ arts booklet to accompany the 2020 JADA.

Supported by The Friends of the Gallery, the JADA is Grafton Regional Gallery's flagship art prize. Established in 1988 the JADA celebrates drawing in all its splendour from hyper-realism that is beyond belief to the expressive and abstract, evoking the poetic and emotional response to the human condition and our environment. Many of the works question and challenge the notion of the traditional drawing; while others provide a contemporary perspective and reinvigorate those traditions. 

The 2020 JADA received a record 659 entries from 521 artists throughout Australia with 56 finalists  being selected for the exhibition and subsequent tour.
