THE HARVEY COOPER AWARD
A chance for Bermuda’s students
to express what matters to them the most.
START CREATING!
Travis Cooper
There are different kinds of art. The best art is a way to record the artists’ values, beliefs and feelings. Art allows the artists to show others how they interpret the world and their experiences in the world.
Margot Kerry Harvey
Art should cause an emotional reaction. The artist has created a particular point of view that is very personal to them. Hours of focus each day to create a piece of artwork that represents who they are and what they have seen. Art can explore the reality of a generation. I wanted to create a space where our young people’s thoughts can be shared with the community.
