GBA 2025 Winners Exhibition at TM Lighting Gallery
The Gilbert Bayes Award 2025 Winners exhibition took place at the TM Lighting Gallery in the winter of 2026, showcasing the work of Amanda Cornish, Beverley Duckworth, Bo-Yi Wu, Emmanuel Awuni, Lucy Mulholland, Madeleine Ruggi, Regan Boyce, Salvatore Pione, Stephen Burke, and Yidan Kim.
The exhibition traveled to The Art House, Wakefield, in the spring and you can watch a video below.
The winners were selected by the artist members of the Society's Board of Trustees and guest judge Freeny Yianni curator and founder of CLOSE Gallery who also curated the show.
Freeny’s chosen theme, Terraforming Futures: Sculpture, sustainability, and the shifting balance of nature explored how sculptors engage with urgent ecological questions , from material reuse and up cycling to speculative visions of post-climate-change landscapes. The idea of terraforming reflects both the destructive reshaping of Earth through human activity and the possibility of artists re-imagining new, more balanced worlds.
