For its inaugural year, the WSA Painting Prize Award Exhibition 2023 invited innovative work by women artists with the intention of creating opportuniities for young female Greek artists in collaboration with their contemporaries in the UK.
The work displayed represents a dialogue between young painters exploring their medium within the broader language of post-medium practice, through the focused lens of the female voice, and as an exchange between nations both sharing a long tradition of art and intellectual history.
These winners reflect a diverse body of painters across borders.
