加利福尼亚国际青少年美术大赛（California International Youth Art Competition ，简称CIYA)，是由美国加州洛斯里奧斯學院、科斯门斯河学院、科斯门斯河美术馆、意大利文化与艺术交流协会联合主办的一场国际性艺术赛事，大赛的主题为“科技与自然”（Technology and Nature），旨在通过艺术形式鼓励全球青少年表达对未来的想象与思考。赛事着眼未来，而聚焦当代议题，如气候危机、AI革命、文化冲突与技术垄断，探讨人类与自然的和谐重构以及更具包容性的文明模式。

The California International Youth Art Competition (CIYA) is a prestigious international art event co-hosted by the Los Rios Community College District, Cosumnes River College, the Italian Culture and Art Exchange Association, and Shengxinyu Art (China). Themed “Technology and Nature,” CIYA aims to inspire global youth to express their imaginations and reflections on the future through artistic creation, focusing on the interplay between technology and the natural world.

大赛于2025年首次举办，收到了来自中国、美国、意大利、新加坡、澳大利亚、加拿大、马来西亚、泰国、新西兰等17个国家，共计1239件作品参与比赛。在专业评审团的评定下，最后选定307件作品，于2025年11月1日-25日在加州科斯门斯河学院的美术馆展出，展览吸引了院校师生及萨克拉门托周边教育、艺术爱好者的关注。

The competition first launched in 2025 and received 1,239 entries from 17 countries, including China, the United States, Italy, Singapore, Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Thailand, and New Zealand. After evaluation by a professional jury, 307 selected works were exhibited from November 1 to 25, 2025, at the Cosumnes River College Art Gallery in California. The exhibition attracted attention from college students and faculty, as well as educators and art enthusiasts throughout the Sacramento area.

加利福尼亚作为全球科技创新的中心，孕育了硅谷这一科技巨擘，拥有苹果、谷歌、特斯拉等引领人工智能、清洁能源和数字化转型的科技巨头，其技术影响力辐射全球。科斯门斯河学院所在的萨克拉门托地区，不仅是加州的文化与教育枢纽，还因其靠近硅谷而深受创新氛围的熏陶。CIYA依托这一独特背景，将科技与艺术、自然相结合，鼓励青少年以画笔为媒介，探索科技如何在气候危机、人工智能革命、文化冲突和技术垄断等当代议题中与自然和谐共生。

大赛旨在通过艺术创作，探讨科技对自然生态的深远影响，倡导可持续发展和包容性文明的构建。青少年通过绘画、雕塑、数字艺术等形式，表达对绿色技术、生态保护及文化多样性的思考，展现科技如何成为修复自然、促进人类与环境和谐的桥梁。赛事不仅为全球青年提供展示创造力的国际平台，还通过展览和跨文化交流，激发公众对科技伦理、环境保护及社会包容性的关注。CIYA希望以艺术为纽带，连接科技与自然，激励新一代以创新、责任感和全球视野，共同塑造一个更可持续、更具人文关怀的未来。

California stands as a global powerhouse of technological innovation, home to Silicon Valley, where tech giants like Apple, Google, and Tesla drive advancements in artificial intelligence, clean energy, and digital transformation, exerting profound influence worldwide. Located in Sacramento, Cosumnes River College benefits from its proximity to this epicenter of innovation, fostering a vibrant environment where education, culture, and technology converge. Against this backdrop, CIYA leverages California’s technological prominence to encourage young artists to explore how technology can coexist harmoniously with nature, addressing critical contemporary issues such as the climate crisis, AI revolution, cultural conflicts, and technological monopolies.

Through diverse artistic mediums like painting, sculpture, and digital art, the competition invites youth to envision how technology can serve as a bridge to restore ecosystems, promote sustainability, and foster inclusive civilizations. CIYA provides a global platform for young creatives to showcase their talents while sparking cross-cultural dialogue through exhibitions, encouraging public discourse on technological ethics, environmental stewardship, and cultural diversity. By intertwining art, technology, and nature, CIYA seeks to inspire the next generation to embrace innovation, responsibility, and a global perspective, shaping a future that is sustainable, equitable, and deeply connected to the natural world.

赛事主题

Theme of Competition Entries

“科技与自然”

Technology and Nature

科技与自然，看似对立，实则共生共融。人类借助科技探索自然奥秘，而自然的智慧又启发科技的创新。这一主题鼓励青少年思考：

和谐共生：科技如何帮助保护自然（如清洁能源、生态修复）？人类怎样用技术减少对环境的破坏？

灵感之源：自然中的形态、结构（如仿生学）如何推动科技发展？例如飞机源于鸟翼，太阳能模仿光合作用。

未来想象：如果科技与自然完美结合，我们的城市、生活会有怎样的改变？是垂直森林建筑，还是AI守护濒危物种？

鼓励青少年儿童们围绕主题用描绘无限的观察与创想——可以描绘科技修复自然的场景，或幻想未来人与万物智能互联的奇妙世界。

Technology and Nature: seemingly opposing, yet symbiotically intertwined. Humanity explores the mysteries of nature through technology, while the wisdom of nature inspires technological innovation. This theme encourages young people to reflect on:

Harmonious Coexistence: How can technology help protect nature (e.g., clean energy, ecological restoration)? How can humans use technology to reduce environmental damage?

A Source of Inspiration: How do natural forms and structures (e.g., biomimicry) drive technological advancements? For instance, airplanes draw inspiration from bird wings, and solar energy mimics photosynthesis.

Imagining the Future: If technology and nature were perfectly integrated, how would our cities and lives transform? Would we see vertical forest buildings or AI guardians for endangered species?

Young participants are encouraged to unleash their boundless observations and creativity around this theme—whether depicting scenes of technology restoring nature or envisioning a wondrous future where humans and all living things are intelligently interconnected.
