Become Part of Collaborative Excellence in AI Creation

The AIMA Tag Team Award introduces a new benchmark for collaborative AI-generated art.
This category is dedicated to works created by two artists working together as a creative unit, sharing authorship, responsibility, and vision.

Being selected for the AIMA Tag Team Award is more than recognition. It highlights your creative perspective, your ability to shape ideas collectively, and to create outcomes that would not exist without creative exchange.

Each quarter, outstanding collaborative works are selected and honored as part of the AIMA Tag Team Award.

Submissions are evaluated by the jury using a dedicated framework that focuses on creative synergy, role clarity, conceptual depth, and the strength of the final outcome as a shared creation.

If your work is selected as an Official Selection, it becomes part of a curated group representing the current standard of collaborative AI creation. The artwork and both artists will be showcased on the AIMA website and shared across AIMA channels. Each Official Selection receives an official AIMA Tag Team digital laurel as a mark of recognition.

Submissions that stand out at the highest level will be named Winners of the AIMA Tag Team Award. The winning team is honored with two physical AIMA Tag Team Awards, one for each artist, shipped individually, and a featured presentation as part of the official AIMA Winner Archive. Second and third place teams receive official AIMA Tag Team laurels for both artists.

This is not just exposure. It is recognition of collaborative creativity at the highest level.
