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.
ATLANTIS

Urban digital twins reflects the life in cities all over the world. Based on collected data those digital models are used in urban planning to predict possible results of actions. The picture shows a natural reflection on water of a citymodel built from shards of cheremic goods collected from the banks of the river that runs trough the city of Gothenburg at the west coast of Sweden. The shards, carefully polished by the waves has returned in the shape of a city made from refundable materials reflected by the surface of the ocean like a long lost Atlantis.
