sea change is our Summer 2024 online juried exhibition hosted here. sea change seeks artworks that explore dramatic transformations, changes, or shifts. Is it possible to locate the exact point in time when something becomes unrecognizable as itself? What does that look like? What processes, experiences, and events act as catalysts to metamorphoses both personal and collective? What do they feel like? The works in sea change speak to moments when the familiar is suddenly made strange and new.
The exhibition will examine these ideas through a variety of mediums in art. Any mediums are welcome, including but not limited to photography, sculpture, painting, collage, digital design, video art, installation, ceramics, performance art…anything you can think of, include it! You may submit up to 3 artworks for a $5 fee, due July 20, 2024. Artists will receive a notification a week after the deadline. The exhibition will go live on August 1, 2024.
If you have any questions, please reach out to us at midwestniceart@gmail.com.
