Welcome to the Social Art Award 2025 – Online Gallery!
We are grateful for the many powerful contributions from artists across the globe. The selected works reflect the diversity of contemporary social art practices and address urgent issues such as climate and water crises, social and economic inequality, migration, conflict, discrimination, and the protection of human and more-than-human life.
Below you will find the submissions from the edition of 2024/2025 that passed the initial jury round. The Online Gallery offers public visibility to these works and supports dialogue around their themes; it does not replace the final jury decision.
Thank you to all artists for sharing your inspiring and committed work. We invite you to explore the gallery and engage with the perspectives shaping the Social Art Award 2025.
Aquanova Project – Cultivating Weakened Marine...
metronovon
The Aquanova project presents a visionary solution for restoring damaged marine ecosystems. Located underwater, spherical domes serve as future-focused sanctuaries for cultivating weakened marine plants. Advanced AI controls temperature and water currents, ensuring optimal conditions for plant growth and ecosystem recovery. The transparent dome surface allows natural light to filter through, creating a harmonious environment while protecting the plants from external threats. Designed for accessibility, the structure is habitable, allowing researchers to work inside the dome and monitor progress. Inside, a glowing AI-controlled network guides the regeneration process. Blending seamlessly with the ocean, Aquanova represents a bold step toward healing the planet, one plant at a time.
