Kyla Art Gallery Aerial Photography Art Award 2023
The purpose of organizing the Aerial Art Award is to promote and showcase aerial photography art, encouraging artists to utilize this unique photographic technique to explore and present the beauty and diversity of the world. Through aerial photography, artists can present everyday environments and landscapes in a more stunning and aesthetic way, and use art as a means to reflect social and environmental issues, thereby raising public awareness and contemplation.
Simultaneously, holding the Aerial Art Award aims to foster the development and exchange of contemporary art. Through this award, we hope to provide the winners with more opportunities for exposure and promotion, and offer the privilege of organizing a solo exhibition at the Kyla Art Gallery in Germany, allowing the awardees to share their artistic creations with a broader audience.
