Ella Josephine Campbell, Hunt Medal Winner 2021

Human Cave Installation, Documentation

As Directors of the Steven Campbell Trust we take great pleasure in announcing that our prize for ‘Poetic Creativity’ demonstrated in the work of a graduating student of Fine Art has been awarded this year to Ella Josephine Campbell of FAP for her film Wood Sprite and her Human Cave Installation.

The award was made by a unanimous decision after careful scrutiny of all Fine Art practices in a year which saw work of an exceptionally high standard being considered. 

We felt Ella’s work demonstrated not only craftsmanship but the highest level of artistic integrity.

‘I was completely drawn into the film and loved her sound too’
‘I loved Ella Campbell’s film and stills, really strong work’
‘My stand out was Ella Campbell!’
‘The skill of the puppetry and movement sequences with the life size puppet was sensitive and moving’

These were just a few of our Directors comments.

We are delighted with our choice and congratulate Ella and wish her well for the future.
