The Art of Frames Design Award, 2016

There are many kinds of treasures – material and non-material – which, for most of us, hold an immense, immeasurable value. A way to protect these reminders of beautiful, precious, but occasionally heart-rending moments in our lives are photographs, paintings, and portraits of loved ones. To emphasize their personal value, we put them in frames. Picture frames are much older than we think. In fact, they have existed for much longer than photography.

The main expectation from artists and designers, participants in the contest is new, creative ideas for the design and shape of frames for paintings, photographs and mirrors to enclose memories, fragments of life, lasting impressions, imageries of scenes.
