The New Medallists - Chloe Shaw
Chloe Shaw graduated from Falmouth College of Art in 2007, and was selected as the New Medallist the following year. Shaw privileges a conceptual approach to the medal: her interest in this medium lies in its ability to embody an idea physically. Her work reflects her interests in the transience of life and longevity, weight and lightness, matter and antimatter.
