ABOUT THE GRANT

Your Vote Matters

At VIMA 2026, Mellow is giving the audience the power to decide.

Three artists will [each receive €3,000] — chosen entirely by visitors like you. No jury. No committee. Just people who came, looked, and felt something.

ABOUT MELLOW

Supporting Talent Globally

Mellow exists to support independent talent around the world — helping creators work across borders without bureaucracy. This grant is an extension of that mission: making it easier for artists to be seen, recognized, and rewarded.
