“Abstract” International Open Call to Artists and Writers—Deadline August 31, 2023

The artist's and writer's call for the ArtAscent Art & Literature Journal Abstract issue is now open.  

Abstractions are all around us. Ideas can be abstract, existing as an idea, feeling or quality but not having a tangible existence. Some conversations can be abstract, vague, theoretical, and not based on particular examples or facts. And, of course, there is abstract art which evokes feelings without trying to represent the appearance of people or things realistically. Abstract art, like poetry, offers a fragment of a mysteriously familiar narrative without directly revealing it in a realistic way. Reveal your most ABSTRACT thoughts.

Arboreal Literary Magazine | Issue No. 03: Illusion

We’re excited to announce the theme for Issue No. 03 is ILLUSION.

How you to interpret this theme is entirely up to you. We simply invite you to venture into the realms of imagination and unravel the illusions that shroud (or illuminate?) reality.

Some Potential Thematic Angles for Inspiration

  • Delve into the illusory nature of human desires, the masks we wear, or the narratives we construct to make sense of the world.
  • Analyze the illusions perpetuated by society, politics, culture, and economics.
  • Explore the ephemeral nature of reality, peering into the shadows where illusion and truth make strange bedfellows.

"Blooming Life" Global Healing Art Contest and Online Exhibition

A spring of vitality, a summer of vibrance. Once all things in the world are given life, they have the right to grow. How to grow healthily depends on each individual, and individual growth depends on their acquired understanding of the environment. This is precisely the essence of art therapy advocated by International Art Education & Therapy Development Academic Association, allowing every living entity to have the energy to bloom; just as various flowers in the summer garden are blooming at this moment. Therefore, we regard the blooming of life as an instinct to live true to ourselves.
