In 2003, Baier created a large-scale public mural for the Engineering, Computer Science and Visual Arts Integrated Complex at Concordia’s Sir George Williams Campus. Popularly known as the large flower mural, the work was a collaboration with the firm Cabinet Braun-Braën.
“Lens-based art has the power to enrich our lives,” says Laura Curtis Ferrera, Scotiabank’s chief marketing officer. “Finalists are telling stories through their art, ultimately helping connect and inspire communities from coast to coast in profound and meaningful ways.”
Six Concordians have won the Scotiabank Photography Award since its 2010 creation.
The 2024 winner, to be announced later this spring, will receive a prize of $50,000 and a solo exhibition at Toronto’s Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival. The two other finalists will receive $10,000 each.
