The winner of this year’s $100,000 Ramsay Art Prize presented by the Art Gallery of South Australia (AGSA) is Jack Ball, for their photographic and sculptural installation, Heavy Grit, developed in response to a collection of scrapbooks held by the Australian Queer Archives.
Perth-born and Sydney-based, Ball explores themes of queer intimacy and desire in their work, revealing fragments of queer histories through layering archival material with personal images and soft-form sculptures.
