🌊 Dear friends of art and transformation, 🌊
A heartfelt thank you to all artists and creatives who submitted their powerful works for this year’s Social Art Award under the theme: “Planetary Healing – Blue Tribes for Ocean Health.” Your inspiring visions speak to ocean restoration, biodiversity, and reimagining our coexistence with all life forms on Earth.
After receiving 922 submissions from across all continents, and concluding a very active public voting phase, the Social Art Award now enters its next chapter:
🔹 What’s next?
The professional jury panel is currently reviewing and selecting the TOP 100 entries that will be featured in the official Social Art Award 2025 book. In parallel, the two public voting winners will move forward as wildcards into the final jury round.
🔹 Coming up:
-
Shortlisted artists (TOP 10) will be announced by mid-June.
-
Winners of the Social Art Award 2025 will be revealed at our Online Award Ceremony on July 2, 2025.
We invite you to stay connected as we celebrate the power of Social Art to drive dialogue, awareness, and collective transformation.
Let’s continue to amplify art as a force for Planetary Healing.

Shaped like a fish, with driftwood resembling its scales and a speaker as its fin, this organic form harmonizes with the wetland environment. When viewers enter the space, they can listen to the ambient sounds of Xiangshan Wetlands through the speaker—the waves, bird calls, crabs digging, and the wind. The design of the viewing window directs their gaze toward the horizon where the sea meets the sky, guiding them to experience a sense of inner peace through the interplay of the artwork and the natural surroundings.
