Winner of the 39th Alice Prize 2016
Naomi Hobson, QLD
High Pine, 2015

“Naomi Hobson is one of a new generation of contemporary indigenous artists who is beginning to make her mark nationally. High Pine 2015 is a compelling example of her approach to painting country – for all its painterly and abstract life its visual cues and palette are insistently local.” – Chris Saines CNZM
