    The PPC Imaginarium Awards for 2016/17 has opened for entries. The awards offer financial support, recognition, mentorship and guidance to unestablished artists and designers.
    PPC Imaginarium Awards opens for entries

    Having evolved from the longstanding PPC Young Concrete Sculptor Awards, the PPC Imaginarium encourages artists and designers to create and express their abilities using Portland cement-based concrete as a primary base or material. The competition will feature six disciplines in the arts and design fields - sculpture, jewellery, architecture, film, industrial and fashion design.

    Each category winner wins R50,000, while runner-up contestants receive R15,000. The overall competition winner will receive the grand prize of R100,000 at the winners’ exhibition in 2017.

    The PPC Imaginarium Awards are open to South African citizens, resident holders as well as foreign students with study permits, who are not professionally established in their respective fields. Artists and designers may enter multiple categories, with an original artwork for each category. Team submissions and collaborations will be accepted. Entries close on Friday 30 September 2016.

    The winners in each competition category will be announced in March 2017 and their work will be on display at the University of Johannesburg in Auckland Park. The overall competition winner announcement will take place in April 2017. All finalists’ entries will be showcased in a travelling exhibition professionally transported by Stuttafords Van Lines.
