Congratulations to Maya Goren, Year 10, who gained second in New Zealand in the TOI Wearable Art Showquest competition with her ‘Floating Gold’ creation. Maya is part of the Wearable Art Club.
We are very proud of Maya as she was in the senior category. Therefore, she was competing against Year 9 -13 students from a total of 63 schools around New Zealand. This was judged by Dame Suzie Moncrieff and Heather Palmer from World of Wearable Art.
The WOW judges gave the following feedback: “A strong concept which has been beautifully executed using a clever selection of materials. It is a work that stands out and pushes the boundaries, with strong overall design based on the interpretation of the theme. Fabulous sculptural form and balance.”
Maya wins a WOW prize pack and a Bernina sewing machine.
