Co-Curated by Rula J. Brock (USA) and Shujaat Mirza (India) 

Prism Press invites visual artists of all backgrounds and disciplines to submit work for our upcoming VR exhibition and print publication, SPIRIT, a curated exploration of the spiritual and the sacred in contemporary art. 

Selected artists receive a VR exhibition with an opportunity to sell their work ( PP does not take a commission,)  and a complimentary print catalogue, published with an ISBN, professionally bound in paperback. 

We are seeking work that engages with themes of spirituality, faith, mysticism, ritual, transcendence, and the search for meaning. Submissions may reflect specific religious traditions or personal expressions of the spiritual journey. We also welcome interpretations rooted in ancestral memory, meditation, inner transformation, or connections to the unseen.

Eligibility:

  • Open to artists worldwide, working in any medium (painting, sculpture, photography, video, installation, digital, performance, writing). No AI please. 

  • Both emerging and established artists are encouraged to apply.

Submission Guidelines:

  • Up to 3 works may be submitted for consideration.

  • Please include mid-sized resolution images, work details and your website.  (If selected we will ask for high-resolution suitable for print.)

  • All work must engage authentically with the theme Spirit.

Important Dates:

  • Submission Deadline: December 10th.

  • Exhibition Dates: Opens Winter Solstice December 21st.
