Marzee Graduate Prize
I am over the moon and honored to share that I was awarded the Marzee Graduate Prize during the 36th International Marzee Graduate Show.
“Every year we award the Marzee Graduate Prize to a number of the most promising graduates in recognition of their outstanding work. The prizewinners are offered a week-long residency at the Ravary estate in Belgium and the work created is then exhibited during the following year’s Graduate Show.”
The first Marzee Graduate Show took place in 1986 and since then has grown from a modest exhibition, showing work by a small number of students from the Dutch schools – the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam, the Academie Beeldende Kunsten in Maastricht and ArtEz Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Arnhem – to an event unparalleled in size and scope. Since 1995, the show has included students from a growing number of international schools and academies, providing a fascinating insight into the ideas and preoccupations that motivate young artists from around the world.
