Congratulations to MA Printmaking student Richard Kearns, the winner of Anglia Ruskin's first ever Student Sustainability Print Prize.

Richard's winning entry 'Center Parcs Elvis' (pictured) was unanimously awarded the £500 first prize by a judging panel consisting of Lizzie Fisher (Curator, Kettle's Yard Art Gallery), Craig Bennett (Director of Policy, Friends of the Earth), Aled Jones (Director of Anglia Ruskin's Global Sustainability Institute) and Nick Devison (MA Printmaking Course Leader, Anglia Ruskin). Richard Walker and Elizabeth Fraser were awarded a joint second prize of £250 each.

The Student Sustainability Print Prize was organised by Anglia Ruskin's new Global Sustainability Institute, which will play a critical role in allying academic disciplines from across the University together with business and governments to address the urgent need for practical solutions to global sustainability challenges.

The prizes will be awarded at the GSI's launch event on 23 May. The competition will hopefully run again next year, while this year's winners will be featured in the Autumn edition of their So What? magazine.

For more information please contact Dr Aled Jones, Director of the Global Sustainability Institute.
