Kiln God Altar has been shortlisted for the 2024 UniSQ Biennial Art Award (University of South Queensland). This significant piece has been acquired by the Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery, QLD, for their permanent collection.

This marks the second piece of Srivialsa's work acquired by the Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery. Notably, Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery was the first public art gallery to acquire his work in 1998, shortly after he completed his Master's degree at the University of Tasmania.

Having Srivialsa's work recognized and preserved in such a prestigious collection is an honour and an exciting milestone
