CIRCA Prize

Björk and Michéle Lamy have come together to kick off the 2025 CIRCA Prize. Staged at London’s Piccadilly Circus, the event drew a crowd of creatives, broadcasting clips from the Björk’s recent film “Cornucopia.”

Founded in 2020 by the London-based Cultural Institute of Radical Contemporary Arts the annual prize invites early-career artists of all creative backgrounds to submit work circling this year’s manifesto, “REFUGIA”– ecological sanctuaries where life thrives, especially in the face of an uncertain future.

The jury will include Björk, Alvaro Barrington, Edward Enninful, Ebony L. Haynes, Nicoletta Fiorucci, Lamy, Josef O’Connor, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Norman Rosenthal and Catherine Wood. 30 finalists will be selected to have their work screened throughout September on London’s Piccadilly Lights with one winning artist receiving $53,500 to go towards their practice, along with an Ai Weiwei-designed trophy.
