Some collaborations are serendipitous, some are delightful concoction and blends, and most are successful ventures - in the aesthetic sense, of course - as I am unable to discern without the knowledge of financial dividends :p
Out of the entire lists of finalists for this year's DTAs, the ones listed here has my utmost interest, as it showcases now just an item from a single person/persona, it celebrates the collaborations of artists - which personally to me, is that the future holds, for the scene to move forward and beyond it's own barriers and borders, IMHO.
It is with utmost regret I do not have a single piece from this list, but visually, I would go with Real Uamou by UAMOU x RealxHead - for a visual parallel from both artists, distinct in their own styles, but a collaborated creation which stands alone in it's own awesomeness as well.
This particular category is closed to public voting, and will be up to a closed panel of judges to choose the sole winner.
