I AM HERE

Celebrating Cultural Narratives and Perspectives

The Burwood Art Prize invites artists from across Sydney to engage with the theme I AM HERE, exploring the importance of diverse cultural stories and community identity.

The Burwood Art Prize offers a platform for artists to delve into the significance of personal and shared cultural experiences, celebrating the many voices that shape contemporary multicultural Australia.

The theme I AM HERE encourages artists to reflect on and express their unique perspectives, using their work to build awareness, inspire celebration, and evoke joy. We invite artists to interpret this statement as a call to explore how art can spark meaningful dialogues, connecting audiences with the vibrant experiences that enrich our collective understanding.

We welcome you to be part of this vibrant celebration of culture, where diverse expressions come together to deepen our sense of appreciation for the stories that make us who we are.
