We are proud to announce the Grand Prize Winner of the 2023 Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize, the six Honourable Mentions and the People’s Choice Award Winner!
Nick Pedersen received his MFA in Digital Arts from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY in 2011. Pedersen’s work combines his own photography, digital collage, and printmaking techniques to create elaborate, photorealistic images focusing on environmental issues. A main theme in his work is “beautiful decay,” creating large-scale pieces that reveal a satirically, post-apocalyptic vision of the not-too-distant future.
