Award 2021
Welcome to the Social Art Award 2021 – Online Gallery!
We are grateful for the many inspiring contributions from artists around the world. The selected works reflect a broad spectrum of contemporary social art practices and explore new relationships between humans, nature, and technology. They address themes such as ecological regeneration, climate justice, sustainable futures, social resilience, and more-than-human perspectives.
Below you will find the submissions from the Social Art Award 2021 – New Greening edition that passed the initial jury round. The Online Gallery offers public visibility to these works and encourages dialogue around their ideas and approaches; it does not replace the final jury decision.
Thank you to all artists for sharing your visionary and committed work. We invite you to explore the gallery and engage with the perspectives shaping New Greening.
Beautiful nature in a fan
Liogi
The fan was obtained by turning a plate with a thickness of only 2.5 mm. A thema has been defined on it that represents nature in all its beauty. With the delicacy of the piercing I created the various details and at the end of everything I cut the edges and colored red. In my ideal world, the center represents serenity. Equality for me is a center, relationships is a center, beauty is a center. Everything that revolves around a hypothetical center will always be equidistant, neither closer nor further away, all the same. This harmony and equality represents the center of my world. With artistic turning I represent it by describing sensations that arouse positive emotions or transport me. Using the piercing technique I try to transfer these emotions, working on the delicacy of the design, on the thickness of the wood in order to involve the user who will stop and look at the works in my journey.
