Artists are invited to submit up to five works for consideration and to also write a short statement on how their work relates to the theme “Modern Issues, Traditional Solutions.” Submissions can range from social, political, economic, historical, and cultural visual insights to a more global, eco-sustainable mindset. The short statements should allow the viewer to have additional insights into the work through the eyes of the artist.  

All types of media — two-and three-dimensional — as well as videos are eligible for submission. The original works of art must have been produced within the last two years. 

Please email jpeg image files of artwork (labeled with title, medium, and dimensions), supporting documents, and resume to islacenter@gmail.com.

Submissions are due by Feb. 1, and artists will be notified of acceptance by Feb. 15.
