Huge congratulations to this year’s incredible winners:
Bianca Raffaella, Emi Avora, Sally Baldwin, Rona Bar, Judy Clarkson, Annie Luke Turner, Ellis King, Helen Masacz, Gherdai Hassell, and Kirsty Bekoe Tabirinall.
It was an absolute honour to serve as a judge alongside Arngunner Aegisdottir, Brigitta Spinocchia Freund, and Saina Attaoui. The standard of talent this year was truly exceptional — selecting the winners was no easy task! I can’t wait to see what next year brings, so to all the talented women artists out there — keep creating!
I’m also thrilled to announce that I’ll be Curatorial Advisor for the Women in Art Prize 2026, so stay tuned for more exciting updates. Judges for 2026 will be Sophie Parker Director of Photo London, Edie Jones Marketing Director at Saatchi Yates, Georgina Cohen Director of Gagosian, Jo Brooks PR Director, Lee Sharrock Director of Cultralee, Stefanie De Regal Director of TAEX and Arngunnur Aegisdottir Director of Mall Galleries.
If you’re interested in sponsoring the Women in Art Prize 2026, we’re currently seeking alcohol and brand partners to collaborate with. Last year, WIAP media reach exceeded 23 million views, making it a remarkable platform for brands aligned with empowering women in the arts.
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to Gabrielle Du Ploy for her vision and tireless dedication in making this non-profit prize possible — and for her continued commitment to championing female artists everywhere.
