Meyne Wyatt makes history with Packing Room Prize win – Sydney Morning Herald
“I’m surprised to be here,” the artist, writer and actor said. “It was just a COVID project first.”
“I have been known to say that artists who enter a self-portrait have no hope of winning the Packer Room Prize but in this case I made an exception to my rule as Meyne is both an artist and celebrity all over Australian television,” Cuthbertson said
Overall it was a record year for entries with 2565 submitted to the Archibald (portrait), Wynne (landscape or figurative sculpture), and Sulman (genre, subject or mural) prizes, 10 per cent more than in 2012.
