Following on from Grace Stafford’s ‘Shrigley special mention’ in 2017, Marton Szuharda in Year 10, won the Greenwich borough prize for his plaster-cast sculpture entitled, ‘Collapsed Lung’, a comment on London reaching its annual air pollution limit within the first few months of 2018. With over 4,000 entries from across London, Marton’s work was selected as the borough winner by international artist Heather Philipson - whose work will be on the 4th


plinth in


2020 - a real acknowledgement of the quality of his plaster- cast piece.


On 26 April, Marton was presented with his prize at the City Hall ceremony. He was presented with a certificate and art equipment by the Deputy Major for Culture and Creative Industries, Justine Simons. Head of Art, Adrian Pitt said ‘This award for Marton signifies what a great first year not only he, but the rest of Year 10 GCSE art goup have had in exploring a range of materials and processes. Their continued focus on the quality of the ideas and outcomes produced will see them not only be successful by the time they complete their art GCSE, but with any future creative paths they wish to pursue’.


If you wish to see Marton’s work, along with the other London borough prize winners, an exhibition of the work can be seen at City Hall until July.

When something once happy becomes dead When something needs an end But consequence is much too tense Excuse


When the bell rings to signal the end When work has not been done The punishment was much too high Excuse


When arguments start to pressure you And compliments don’t help no more When it is way too late He said She said Excuse


Why weren’t you home? Who is this? What’s the point? Why are you ignoring me? Excuse
