NEM/The Hungry Ghost – ‘Void’ Competition – Reworked!
Last month we published details of the NEM and The Hungry Ghost Facebook group competition. This competition involved artists creating artwork that depicted the term ‘Void’. Sixteen artists’ works were selected and these then went to a public vote. Finally the top three were determined and their t-shirts auctioned off for charity.
The charities were to be determined but recently it was annouced that Edyta Lipinska a most talented mobile photographer/artist was experiencing very difficult and expensive health issues. A fundraising appeal on Facebook has been announced to help her and Steve Cooper from The Hungry Ghost has decided to pledge the entire amount to this organisation.
We all wish Edyta the very best and a super fast recovery.
