Eligibility:

We are now accepting submissions for our upcoming special edition, "The Sea of Emotions"—a curated publication exploring the deep, fluid, and often untamed relationship between human emotion and the sea.

This open call invites visual artists to reflect on the ocean as a metaphor, a memory, a presence. Think of tides and tempests, calm waters and churning depths. From personal reflections to political undercurrents. We welcome work that navigates the emotional landscapes inspired by seas, oceans, rivers, and watery realms.

Open to artists worldwide,  aged 18 and above. ​

Each selected artist will receive a 2-6 page spread in print and digital magazines including a biography, statement, interview, website, and 2-10 featured artworks. All published artists will receive a complimentary digital issue of the magazine which will be promoted on our website/social media. In addition, you will receive the link for ordering the printed magazine. 

 

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

Requirements for the submission: 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.  

 

Deadline: June 16

Application Fee: No Fee  

The participation fee is 25 EUR (in case of acceptance)
