SYMBOLISM

International Juried Exhibition

Theme: Symbolism

An exploration of symbols, meaning, hidden language, and visual storytelling in art.

This July, we invite artists to explore the world of symbols, meaning, and hidden language in art. From ancient icons and cultural motifs to personal metaphors and visual storytelling, symbolism allows us to communicate what cannot be spoken. Show us how you embed meaning, narrative, and depth into your work through shapes, signs, imagery, and intention.
