Arwen DPS receives the Gold Medal from the Academy of Arts, Sciences and Letters
On October 11, 2025, in Paris, Arwen DPS's works were honored with the Gold Medal of the Academy of Arts-Sciences-Letters, one of the highest distinctions awarded by this French institution founded in 1915.
This prestigious award recognizes the expressive strength, artistic coherence and singularity of her work, acknowledged for its aesthetic rigor and ethical commitment.
The Academy of Arts, Sciences, and Letters aims to promote cultural and humanist values by recognizing those who, in the fields of artistic, scientific, or literary creation, contribute to the influence of French culture both in France and internationally.
Its awards, bestowed under the patronage of the Ministry of Culture, are among the most respected in the artistic and intellectual landscape.
The Gold Medal thus recognizes a profoundly ethical work: painting on recycled wood, defending biodiversity and questioning the human condition through an expression that is at once raw, poetic and sensitive.
