Anna Lewis – Awarded the GSA’s highest undergraduate honour.

Congratulations Emerging Art Prize nominee, Sculpture and Environmental Glasgow School of Art graduate Anna Lewis, who has been awarded the 2025 Newbery Medal – the GSA’s highest undergraduate honour.

Anna’s work delicately explores memory, materiality, and the ephemeral through sculpture, textiles, sound, and text.

“Anna creates extraordinary objects that are beautifully and precisely crafted,” said Martin Newth, Head of the School of Fine Art. “She brings the same careful attention to detail to arranging the varied pieces in her evocative and deeply enigmatic installations. Anna is a wonderful artist whose work is hard to categorise and offers exactly the kind of challenge that makes it so compelling.”
