The HERALBONY Art Prize is an international art award established in 2024 to provide a platform for artists with disabilities from around the world, regardless of their professional status, age, or nationality, to showcase their creative power and support the blossoming of their careers.The prize includes a Grand Prize and Jury Awards selected by professionals such as curators and gallery directors, as well as Corporate Awards sponsored by companies that align with HERALBONY’s vision of reshaping the image of “disability and art.” The exhibition of award-winning works will present unique creations expressed through diverse materials, techniques, and styles, delivering the power of expression to a wide audience.

“The symbol mark,formed by merging the “H” from HERALBONY and the “A” from Art, is inspired by the concept of a “spotlight” highlighting the “artists in the lead” within the HERALBONY Art Prize. We anticipate that the unique expressions of each individual will broaden the platform where they radiate, fostering the emergence of new talents.”

An art exhibit I’m in opens Saturday in #Tokyo!

The exhibit is open for two weeks, and contains the winners and finalists (I’m a finalist!) of the HERALBONY Art prize, an international disability art prize.

I had a very rough Feb-April health-wise so I am not able to attend. If you’re able to go, I’d love to hear your thoughts & see any photos!
