    Tom Malone Prize 2021 Artwork Labels Since 2003, the Tom Malone Prize has celebrated the achievements of Australian glass artists with regular exhibitions of shortlisted works, and by bringing each year’s winning work into the Collection. In this way, the Gallery has ensured that the expressive capacity of this technically demanding medium and the visions of those who so deftly employ it, are consistently present in the broader cultural life of the State and the nation. The Tom Malone Prize 2021 features 13 works by shortlisted artists: Kate Baker, Clare Belfrage, Hannah Gasson, Marcel Hoogstad Hay, Rita Kellaway, Gerry King, Peter Kovacsy, Jeremy Lepisto, Jenni Kemarre Martiniello, Madeline Prowd, Kirstie Rea, Ayano Yoshizumi and Madisyn Zabel. Working from South Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, the Australian Capital Territory and regional Western Australia, and ranging in age from their late-twenties to their mid-seventies, they are a highly diverse group representing an equally diverse set of approaches. These include quiet meditations on the natural world; refined studies of the spatial relationships between objects and beings; and reflections on the meaning of home and the realm of the secular spiritual. This year’s judges were Jessica Loughlin (glass artist and two-time Tom Malone Prize winner), Sheryl Grimwood (Art Gallery of Western Australia Foundation Benefactor), Elizabeth Malone (Art Gallery of Western Australia Foundation Governor) and Robert Cook (AGWA’s Curator of West Australian and Australian Art). Kate Baker born 1973 Canberra, Australian Capital Territory Within matter #1 2020 glass: UV flatbed digitally printed; mounted on mild steel base Courtesy of the artist 2020/E256 Within matter #1 explores concepts of our immaterial nature, paradoxically through our existence as, and within, matter.
