Alfield Reeves:
“I had a moment where I was creating the budget for what it would take to make my project for ArtPrize come to life and it hit me, Oh Snap, I really do need this money. But being one of the Motu Viget Grant Recipients is not only a confidence booster but a confirmation to my idea. I’m thankful for the opportunity to bring to life my most impactful work to-date to a creative competition & platform like ArtPrize."
Camille Steverson and Kaitlynn Fitzpatrick:
“Pitch Night reminded us why we do what we do — to create work that challenges norms and invites people into something deeper. This opportunity gave us that push to trust our vision and continue to create with intention… Pitch Night brought everything into focus. For the first time, it felt like this idea wasn’t just ours; it was ready to be shared."
Esan Sommersell:
“The Motu Viget Pitch Night was nothing short of inspiring. As the final artist to present, I had the privilege of witnessing an incredible range of ideas and powerful deliveries—each one teaching me something valuable about what makes a pitch truly connect. I left with a renewed hunger to step into future ArtPrize competitions, armed with bigger visions and new ways to really genuine, enthusiastic support… Winning was the icing on the cake, and for that, I am grateful. For ArtPrize 2025, my hope is simple yet deeply personal: to be seen. I have poured my life, my heart, and my craft into this city, and I want to know what it feels like for my work to stand on a larger stage—recognized, celebrated, and shared with the world.”
Congratulations, artists!
