One of the oddest phenomena of the COVID-19 epidemic is the intense dreams that most people have been experiencing during this time. An expression of a collective unconscious, or a universal response to the same conditions? Whatever the causes, it is certainly something powerful.
Artavita is holding a contest for the three most powerful works of art expressing, visualizing or interpreting such dreams.
We will display the 3 winning works and the following 57 runners up in a virtual exhibition in the new Virtual Exhibitions section of the Artavita website, and also on social media. The three winners will also be featured in “International Contemporary Masters” Volume 14, the next book to be published by World Wide Art Books, in July 2021
All media are accepted
Participation fee $15 per image
