The Panel of Judges took charge of the grand finale competition by asking each of the top 10 finalist to analyse their artworks to the audience in relation to Invigoration, the theme of the Competition. Also, they were asked questions related to Invigoration. 

– Panel of judges deliberated with each other to come up with the top 3, however they did not have access to the Higher Institutions the contestants came from until it was announced by the organiser after they have selected the top 3. This was important to ensure objectivity and credibility of the competition exercise.
