Chairmen's Challenge - Second Prize Winner

The artist: "Renewal of our planet was a key message I aimed to convey in this photograph. The glitter moving from one hand to the other represents the idea of time passing, just like an hourglass, symbolising how time to save our planet is sadly running out. The silver and metallic colour palette represents the future and asks the viewer to consider the future of our world. Working on this photoshoot was a positive experience, although rather messy in the studio, it was great fun working with my model - a wonderful memory to have. I am delighted that my photograph has been selected by the RSA and grateful to be given the opportunity to share my message with everyone."
