Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The AAO determined the petitioner did not receive a prize or award, as being a finalist is not equivalent to receiving one, and failed to prove the publications featuring his work qualified as major media or professional/trade publications. The Director had only initially credited the petitioner with meeting the artistic display criterion.
