Widely regarded as Australia’s most significant award for contemporary glass art, the Tom Malone Prize recognises excellence and innovation in the field. Hannah’s shortlisted work, Bush Wee, reflects the technical and conceptual development fostered through her ISS Institute Fellowship. During her international program, she refined advanced engraving, sandblasting and hand-finishing techniques, alongside specialised glass painting processes that have become integral to her contemporary stained glass practice.


Her inclusion on this year’s shortlist speaks to the strength of her distinctive voice within Australian glass and her commitment to expanding the possibilities of stained glass in a contemporary context.

We also congratulate Mason Family Trust Fellow Daphne Mohajer va Pesaran on her inclusion in A Velvet Ant, a Flower, and a Bird at the The Potter Museum of Art. Her work, Solar Rope, is presented within this ambitious exhibition guest curated by Professor Dr Chus Martínez.

Crafted from handmade Japanese washi paper, dye, calico and pins, Solar Rope explores growth and intelligence through the metaphor of textile and interconnection. Conceived as an altar to transformation, the work forms a hanging garden of interlocking elements, a visual language of chains, communication and evolving relations.


A Velvet Ant, a Flower, and a Bird brings together works drawn from the University of Melbourne’s collections alongside contemporary commissions to reimagine intelligence as living, interconnected and continually evolving.

We warmly congratulate Hannah and Daphne on these significant milestones. Their achievements exemplify the curiosity, rigour and creative ambition fostered through the Mason Family Trust Fellowship.

Who can apply for a 1 Year Online MBA?

Eligibility varies by university, but a bachelor’s degree from a recognised university is commonly required. Some programmes may also consider work experience.

I was looking into B.Tech options and found that the course can be useful for students who want to develop a stronger foundation in engineering and technology. Comparing the learning format, specializations, practical exposure, eligibility, and future career options before choosing a program seems important.

A useful perspective on modern application development. The focus on scalability and flexibility makes serverless application development services an interesting approach for growing applications.

A Parke T-shirt can be combined with several different casual clothing options depending on the look you want to create. Jeans offer a familiar everyday combination, while cargo trousers can give the outfit a more streetwear-inspired character. Joggers may be useful when comfort is your main priority. During cooler weather, you can add a hoodie, overshirt, or jacket without changing the basic outfit. What would you personally wear with a casual T-shirt?

Excellent and well-written post. I like how the topic is presented in a straightforward and reader-friendly manner. Articles covering Sildenafil can help people gain better awareness.
