Mini Series Art Prize Finalists 2025.
Mini Series Art Prize 2025
Established in 2019, the Mini Series Art Prize is a biannual Australian art prize presented by The Corner Store Gallery. The prize invites emerging and established artists from across Australia to submit a cohesive three-piece series that explores a unified theme, concept or visual narrative.
Designed as a miniature solo exhibition, the prize challenges artists to think beyond a single artwork and present a body of work that demonstrates the depth and direction of their practice. Working across painting, ceramics, textiles, photography, drawing, printmaking and mixed media, finalists showcase the strength of their artistic voice through a connected series of three works.
Each edition culminates in a finalist exhibition at The Corner Store Gallery, with the winning artist awarded a solo exhibition and gallery representation. Highly Commended artists receive online exhibition opportunities and may also be invited to join the gallery's artist stable.
Since its launch, the Mini Series Art Prize has become an important platform for Australian artists seeking to develop and present cohesive bodies of work while connecting with new audiences and collectors.
