Western Australian artist Timo Hogan has won the coveted National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art award for his work, Lake Baker 2020.
Hogan’s spectacular painting pays homage to his father’s country and invites the onlooker to witness his knowledge and custodianship of this significant site.
‘I am very happy to have won this award. It makes me feel strong inside. Painting is important for Anangu to tell their stories. The Art Centre is a good place for people to come and be together and paint their country. I’m happy for this prize and that people see this work is important’
