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.

The object of this piece is to bring art and agriculture closer together. It is a hybrid of sculpture and chocken coop. The construction is strongly influenced by the „Stabbur“ - old high-rise storage facilities found on many Norwegian farms. The gap between ground and wood allows for very good air circulation and ensures that the wood won´t get waterlogged. The construction focuses on both functional and aesthetic aspects. The two base stones were worked on in Norway. before being transported to Germany. Then followed the wooden structure and the roof planted with goldenrods.
