‘The Jameel Prize: Moving Images’ exhibition is coming to the V&A South Kensington @vamuseum from 30 November 2024 to 16 March 2025!
The Jameel Prize is the V&A’s award for contemporary art and design inspired by Islamic culture, history, society and ideas. This seventh edition is devoted to moving image and digital media. The exhibition brings together the work of seven finalists who were selected by a panel of judges from over 300 submissions. The artists’ diverse practices span film, photography, animation, sound, sculpture and virtual reality. In a series of intimate, immersive encounters, the works in Jameel Prize: Moving Images engage with issues relating to identity, history and community.
With water and ecology as recurring themes and reflecting the enduring power of the hand-made alongside digital technology, the exhibition presents artists as storytellers. Huge congratulations to the shortlisted artists:
