This theme's heart is the idea that dialogue—spoken, unspoken, visual, sonic, spatial—is never static. Conversations evolve, shift, repeat, and ripple across time, space, and media. These exchanges are the foundation of artistic expression, whether between individuals, across communities, or within the language of materials and disciplines.
We're looking for work that explores art as dialogue—art that responds, reframes, or reverberates. How does your work speak to or with its environment, its audience, or other works? How does it inhabit a conversation rather than a monologue?...

The Execution of Holofernes (2025)
Description: Portrait impression of the biblical story of Judith, previously interpreted by Caravaggio, Klimt and many others. Conversation-wise, a possible reflection of 'cancel culture' and the risks of high-profile people speaking their minds, and the consequences of that.
Artist: Hugo Fitch

Bench. Description: An ordinary object that becomes extraordinary through its quiet role as a communal point of gathering. By documenting the people who sit there over time, Abigail highlights how shared spaces, no matter how small or mundane, can serve as meaningful connectors between individuals. The project invites viewers to consider how familiar objects and places shape human interaction, memory, and belonging.

Last Supper II
Description: This is a contemporary take of the Last Supper. It is spiritual but not in a religious way. Tensions but also affections are reflected in the figures portrayed. Each of them is relating in one way to the other with the main figure at the top of the table but interacting simultaneously with the other characters. There’s silence with some or conflict between others.

If the house is not okay, then I'm not okay
Description: If the House is not Okay, Then I’m not Okay (2025) is about her and the stresses and overwhelming feeling she gets from the domestic, specifically the list of chores and mental load she takes on. She reflects on gender roles and the chore-gap to fuel her work. She drew upon past experiences where she had to act as a motherly or maternal figure in her relationships instead of them being a shared division of labour.

This installation is a conversation between the artist and the burden of opioid abuse on the family. The purple poppies the colour of death, hang ominously above the artist—a cloud of doom.
