Remagine Art Prize 2024
Theme – 'Crossroads of Consumption’
Remagine Art Prize has a focus on waste, sustainability, and the environment.
Each year it has a thought-provoking theme. Artists are asked to submit works that relate to an element of this year’s theme ‘Crossroads of Consumption’, referring to the critical juncture where our consumption has met the finite resource limits of our planet.
Total prize money $11,000. Open to digital art stills, sculpture, mixed media, painting, photography, print making, ceramics and drawing.
This year’s judges are Sheona White, Ulric Steiner and Susan O’Doherty.
The Remagine Art Prize finalists’ exhibition will be held from 10 May until 26 May 2024, at Wallarobba Arts and Cultural Centre, 25 Edgeworth David Avenue, Hornsby.
