今年的获奖者包括王馨曼博士，她是一位国际生态艺术家和艺术教育家，她因探索艺术、自然和文化记忆之间关系的跨学科作品而获得认可。王馨曼是今年唯一一位获得该奖项的中国艺术家。

此次王馨曼的参展代表性作品《生命与共存-治愈从爱开始》,《生命与共存系列-雪豹：穿越时空与科学的凝视》，该创作于2025年初，凝视-深刻警惕和内省的时刻。这种与观众的直接互动形成反思人类与自然世界之间的脆弱共存。背景上刻有量子力学公式，与东巴文的并存，东巴文是一种古老的象形文字，仍在中国的云南地区流传和使用。科学符号和精神象征主义之间的这种相互作用构建了经验与神秘，现代性和古代性，人类的智力和自然的持久智慧之间的视觉对话。作品中的对比元素（量子力学公示，古老的文本，以及原始的，无污染的雪地势力的存在-对人类的现象越来越多地跨越人类的关系。科学技术方面的进步是否促进了与自然世界的更和谐共存，还是加剧了像雪豹这样的濒危物种所面临的威胁？通过嵌入这些视觉和概念紧张局势，王馨曼博士的工作超越了代表性。这成为一个紧迫的行动呼吁，迫使观众参与野生动植物保护问题和全球危机的不断升级 气候变化。通过生命与共存系列作品，王博士合并艺术，人类学和环境宣传，敦促观众不仅欣赏这种难以捉摸的物种的美丽，而且还考虑了它们在塑造地球生态未来的作用。王博士不仅是生态艺术家，同时也担任UNESCO-IMAJ国际项目“自然与艺术-保护生物多样性全球艺术大赛”的执行总监，并领导了多项国际艺术活动，旨在通过创造性表达提高人们对环境问题和保护生物多样性的思考。

This thoughtfulinterplaybetween scientific notation and spiritual symbolism createsalayeredvisual dialogue—betweenmodernity and antiquity,intellect andinstinct, empiricalinquiry andcultural heritage.Elements such as fleeting scientific symbols, timelessindigenous texts,and pristine snow-cappedlandscapes converge topose a central question:Do scientificadvancespromote harmony with nature, or do theydeepen thethreatsfacedbyendangeredspecieslikethe snowleopard?

By embedding these visual and conceptual tensions,Dr. Wang’s work transcends

representation.Itbecomes acall to action—promptingurgent reflection onwildlife
