EMRYN INGRAM-SHUTE Finalist in the Dobell Drawing Prize

April 16, 2025

Emryn Ingram-Shute has been selected as a finalist in the Dobell Drawing Prize for her work ‘I woke up in the forest, it was blue’. Emryn’s installation will be showcased in the finalist exhibition at NAS Gallery from 11.04. – 21.06.25. 

The Dobell Drawing Prize is Australia’s leading prize for drawing, and an unparalleled celebration of technique, innovation and expanded practice. Presented at the National Art School in partnership with the Sir William Dobell Art Foundation, this biennial exhibition continues to highlight the enduring relevance and changing role of drawing within contemporary art practice. At its heart, Emryn’s practice seeks to break down dualistic boundaries and signifiers, finding ways of expressing the possibility that nothing is solid or separate. The mundane and the transcendental are indivisible and every moment is relational.
