FIAP Colour Biennial Results 2021
The results of the 29th FIAP Biennial are in. Thank you so much to those of you who sent me images so I could enter on behalf of the WPF.
The 29th Colour Print Biennial was won by PAGB. The WPF finished 13th from 36 countries.
The 29th Colour Projected Biennial was won by Russia with PAGB 22nd and the WPF 24th from 36 countries.
The two themes we chose were ‘Olympic Sports’ and ‘Light in the Landscape’. I am thrilled to say that Glen Porter of Gwynfa CC received a Silver medal in the sport section (prints). Congratulations Glen, a great achievement in a worldwide event. Here are the results.

I was a little disappointed with our Landscape results, as I thought they deserved more but that’s the way it goes. I’ll be looking for some Mono images later in the year when we have decided on our two themes.
Once again, I would like to thank everyone who sent me images. Without you we wouldn’t have been able to enter. Well done each and every one of you.
Jenny Hibbert (WPF President).
