The winner of the $2000 Artist Prize was Michelle Czech, a design student at RMIT University, for her work titled ‘Magnetic Field’, a hand-made transfer printing on canvas depicting brightly coloured ‘flowers’ inspired by magnetic ferro-fluid. Michelle brought her canvas (measuring 121 cm by 61 cm) to our announcement at the 5th World Conference of Science Journalists in Melbourne last week. I really like Michelle’s work because it depicts the ferro-fluids form so accurately, but does it in such a delightful way. To see ferro-fluid in action, see this YouTube video (one of many).
