Skyframe Awards
The Skyframe Awards invite students and emerging creatives to develop new work for the screen, giving them a platform in the City to showcase their work to thousands of visitors each day.
The Skyframe Awards celebrate emerging digital artists, transforming one of London’s largest suspended LED canvases into a platform for new voices.
Five artists were invited to respond to a creative brief, supported from concept development in our simulator through to staging their work at Skyframe London. The result: five distinct visions displayed across the LED ceiling at Fen Court.
Oliver Pearse brought “Organic Ocean,” Livvy Seabrook-Wilkins created “Little Meadow,” Philip Hoare presented “A Different Perspective,” DNA Studio delivered “Drift,” and James Doherty crafted “Into the Smog”.
James Doherty won the inaugural award for his bold, sci-fi inspired vision that reimagined the London skyline with cinematic impact.
