Taking part

Applicants should present work that demonstrates a clear command of textile techniques and a thoughtful conceptual framework. The selection process favors originality and material intelligence over trend-driven aesthetics. Carefully review the prize guidelines for eligibility and deadlines; a concise, well-documented portfolio with high-quality images is essential. Avoid generic artist statements; instead, articulate the specific textile processes and ideas at play.
