innocence open art competition

Innocence is defined as being without corruption, guile, or guilt, or worldly sophistication, but also it defines a time in life of joy and naivete. It’s the embodiment of purity, of virginity, and freedom from blame. Most innocence from children fades with time and experience, but watching the innocent play joyfully and candidly is a soulful experience. Where is your innocence? Where is your inner child? Is it in the past? Is in the present? Is it in politics? Is it in culture? Does innocence make our world better? Or worse? In this call for entries we are asking for the artist’s interpretation of innocence.Read More →

What a year! We have often asked ourselves during this tumultuous year the question from the great Pixies song, “Where is My Mind?” In this call for entries we want to know where is your mind? Is it way out there?

Our Mother. Our Earth. As a recent politician said, “There is no Plan B.” We need to understand and own what we are doing to our environment. Environmental groups are rising en masse.

Think about that for a minute, or two. The corporations and politicians are reckless in destroying our beautiful earth for profit. 

We are asking you, as someone who sees beyond profits and bribes, what Mother Earth means to you. You can conjure up your feelings and perceptions through art in a way that the paper pushers can’t understand. Tell us what Mother Earth means to you. Tell them what they are doing to Mother Earth. Tell us all what we will be missing when it will be destroyed, because there is no other world we can escape to. 

This call for submissions is about our environment, our planet and our Mother. Give us your best.

Yellow really is a broad word. It has many definitions: a color, a type of journalism, cowardly, an egg yolk, and aging. In this open art call we want the artist’s interpretation of yellow, whether as the color of the presentation of the other definitions of the word.
