Congratulations to Petrina Hicks who has been announced as winner of the $25,000 Bowness Photography Prize 2014.
'The three judges were unanimous in selecting Petrina's photograph 'Venus' as the winner of this year's Bowness Photography Prize. It is a beautiful image that is both striking in its simplicity and profound in its historical and cultural associations.... a truly worthy winner of Australia's most prestigious photography prize.'
