Homiens voices
“As an emerging artist without gallery representation, it can be frustrating and difficult to acquire the institutional recognition that every ambitious young artist craves. The Homiens Art Prize’s unrestricted and non-acquisitive cash awards are an amazing form of support, but even beyond that is their commitment to affording artists all around the world access to a network made up of public institutions, collectors, curators, and practitioners. In my case, this network and exposure is more valuable than almost any bank note because it is through these connections that an artist can establish a longstanding, successful career. It wasn’t very long ago that I was just barely paying my bills painting pets and picking up any commissioned work that I could. But through perseverance and support systems like Homiens, I am given the opportunity to focus on making the kind of paintings I want to make and establish my artistic voice in front of the right audience.” Jackson Wrede (Shortlisted for The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
“Being selected for the Longlist of The Homiens Art Prize is a huge honor and a big step forward for me as a contemporary artist. It feels like all the time I’ve spent experimenting, reflecting, and honing my craft is finally gaining some traction. It is a sign that my work is being seen and appreciated in the broader art community. This acknowledgment inspires me to keep exploring new ideas and creating, as well as offers me a chance to connect with other artists, curators, and collectors in the contemporary art world. I’m incredibly grateful for this recognition and opportunity for visibility.” Kara Beth Rasure (Longlisted for The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
“As Etel Adnan said, ‘Life is a weaving.’ I am now honoured to count the Homiens community as part of the weaving of my artistic research.” Marie Aimée Fattouche (Longlisted for The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
“I truly appreciate the time and care the panel took in reviewing my submission. It is heartening to know that my work was considered among such a high volume of talented artists. I am encouraged by your words about resilience and bravery, qualities that I strive to embody in my artistic journey. Your feedback reinforces my commitment to continue developing my practice and sharing my vision with others. I will certainly look forward to future opportunities with Homiens. The support and recognition you provide to the artist community is invaluable, and I am grateful to be a part of it. Thank you once again for your encouragement and support. I wish you and the Homiens team continued success in your mission to celebrate and uplift artists.” Aleksandra Scepanovic (Entrant to The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
“I am grateful and honored to have my work selected for the Homiens Art Prize—a platform that not only offers professional visibility but also serves as a conduit for artists to highlight the essence of what we hold dear in our various practices—our explorations, our narratives, our stories. I extend my sincere thanks to the Homiens team for their exceptional efforts in fostering such a significant and enriching environment. Aiman (Winner of The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
“I am honored to be among the many talented artists selected in the Homiens Art Prize. Community in the arts is vital, Homiens provides a space for artists to see the work of others and be seen in return.” Lara Nickel (Shortlisted for The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
“Thank you to the Homiens community for supporting me, and for the opportunity to show my work to a new audience. Art is the way I communicate and contribute back to my society. The world needs art for progress! Having the honor of this shortlist award is incredibly important because it lends such necessary support.” Charity Baker (Shortlisted for The Homiens Art Prize, Spring 2024)
