The final judging panel consisted of five experts, each selecting one finalist to receive an award bearing their name, resulting in a diverse lineup. Among the featured works are those by Claire Fujita (Manabe Daito Award), who combines machinery and plant life to explore societal conflicts, noting that the pace of modern life hinders careful relationships. Another is Sakura Koretsune (Kamiya Sachie Award), who uses materials like whale baleen gathered from fieldwork to create imaginary toys, aiming to preserve disappearing materials and techniques while commenting on environmental crises and cultural loss.
