American artist Sondra Perry has been
awarded Muse, the Rolls-Royce Art Programme’s flagship
commission to create a new work on the subject of ‘dreams’. Sondra
Perry is a moving-image artist who creates works exploring themes of

Moving-image art includes experimental film, animation,
augmented and virtual reality, and artificial intelligence. With

dimension to the world of art but reflects truly modern and
future-facing thinking within Rolls-Royce.
The award will be granted every two years, under the guidance of
