Being one of Chanel’s inaugural Next Prize recipients was a great honour. We loved being part of the programme and getting to know the inspiring and motivating work of the other participating artists. Overall, this was a transformative step for us and we are very thankful for getting to experience it. In late October 2023, we had the final get-together with the other winners and the Chanel team, to discuss our collective personal and professional development and reflect on the Next Prize journey together.
