Portraits

We are pleased to announce our next Special Edition + Online Exhibition, inviting artists worldwide to submit work for the theme: “Portraits.”

​

This open call invites artists working in any medium to explore how identity, presence, and emotion are captured through the human face and form. From traditional likeness and self-portraiture to abstract, experimental, and conceptual interpretations, we welcome work that reveals character, memory, vulnerability, culture, and connection. Selected artists will be featured with their artworks, biographies, and personal statements in our international publication. Show us the stories a portrait can tell — seen and unseen.

​

Eligibility: Open to all nationalities and those 18 and above.​

Accepted media: painting, drawing, collage, illustration, photography, textile, textile & fiber, paper art, digital art.

Selected artists will have the privilege of being showcased in a month-long online exhibition and will receive a 2-6-page spread in both print and digital magazines. This feature will encompass a biography, artist statement, interview, website link, and 2-10 featured artworks. Moreover, all published artists will receive a complimentary digital issue of the magazine, which will be actively promoted on our website and social media platforms. Additionally, they will be provided with a link to order the printed version of the magazine.

Moreover, the curatorial team will select a few exceptional artists for inclusion in their upcoming book edition titled '101 Contemporary Artists and More...'

Up to 12 photos (min. 300 dpi, JPEG/TIFF format), details of the work (title, medium, size, year), brief biography, artist statement (min 100 words each), website, and social media links.
