Jurors’ Statement MJ1

It was a pleasure to be immersed in the abundance of high-level submissions to MJ1. Thank you to all who entered.

The work we chose to include was overall more different than similar, sometimes at the expense of perceived skill and mastery. We looked for elements of surprise, for personal conviction, for courage and work that was true to itself.
