The Jameel Prize is the V&A’s award for contemporary art and design inspired by Islamic art, culture, history, society and ideas. Founded in 2009, the Jameel Prize is open to artists of any background, based anywhere in the world. Over fifteen years, the Prize has celebrated artists who creatively and critically explore the complex heritage of Islam, or engage with issues that affect Muslim communities all over the world today.
This seventh edition is devoted to moving image and digital media – from film, photography and animation to sound, sculpture and virtual reality. The exhibition brings together the work of seven finalists who were selected by a panel of judges from over 300 submissions, following an open call. In a series of intimate, immersive encounters, their diverse practices take us from Palmyra to Karachi, Chibayish to Detroit, Tehran to Kolkata.
Jameel Prize: Moving Images opened at the V&A South Kensington, London, in 2025, and then travelled to Cartwright Hall, Bradford, as part of Bradford’s year as UK City of Culture.
