Arts Council Malta have announced that ‘URNA’, by a collaborative creative team including Andrew Borg Wirth, Anthony Bonnici, Matthew Attard Navarro, Thomas Mifsud, Anne Immelé, Stephanie Sant and Tanil Raif has won the 2025 London Design Biennale Medal, awarded to the most outstanding overall contribution.

Perfectly exemplifying and merging design innovation and creativity, together with a more deeply spiritual enquiry, ‘URNA’ is an innovative project speculating on a radical future for the adoption of cremation in Malta. ‘URNA’ imagines a new ritual for handling human remains, envisioning it as a culturally significant process.
