Kate Vass Joins Lumen Prize 2024 Committee

We are excited to announce that our founder, Kate Vass, is on the committee for the Future category of this year’s Lumen Prize, which recognizes the best in technology-driven artistic creativity each year. The International Selection Committee is made up of over 30+ diverse professionals from around the world at the forefront of the digital art movement, and we are proud to be a part of this group.

The Lumen Prize champions the innovative possibilities of technology-driven creativity. It provides the pre-eminent platform showcasing artists who are pioneering new visual languages at the intersection of art and technology. Lumen is affiliated with Lumen Studios, a UK-based digital arts champion which builds opportunities for Lumen artists by curating exhibitions, commissions and events for art venues, cultural institutions and public spaces around the world as well as delivering consultancy services for partners globally.

Artists can enter any of five categories, each with a prize of $1,500. Every artwork submitted is reviewed by at least two committee members, and up to 70 artists will be chosen as finalists. These finalists’ works will be evaluated by a jury, and there will be nine winners in total.

The Future category focuses on works that examine the interaction between society and technology. This can include projects involving AI, robotics, human-computer interaction, quantum computing, and sustainable technologies.

The application period for artists is open until May 25th.
