Remagine Art Prize 2025

Theme – Rethink to Repurpose

Remagine Art Prize is an environmental art prize dedicated to bringing awareness of environmental challenges such as waste and consumption. Held in partnership with the Hornsby Art Society since 2009, Remagine Art Prize is delivered and sponsored by Hornsby Shire Council. This year’s theme ‘RE:THINK TO RE:PURPOSE’ refers to the decisions we make each day about how much waste we create, and how we can reuse materials to help save our precious natural resources. The extraction of raw materials, production, transport, and consumption directly affects our environment, including native wildlife, aquatic species, and birdlife. Artists are asked to submit works that relate to this year’s theme.

This non-acquisitive prize is open to Australian residents aged 18 years and over, with total prizemoney of $11,000. Open to painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, photography, digital stills, and mixed media.

This year’s judges are curator Rhonda Davis and artist Marina DeBris.
