Assemblage art pioneer and activist Betye Saar said, “I am intrigued with combining the remnant of memories, fragments of relics, and ordinary objects, with the components of technology. It's a way of delving into the past and reaching into the future simultaneously. The art itself becomes the bridge.” In that spirit, the Women’s Caucus for Art of Greater Washington, DC (WCADC) invites all women and non-binary artists to create a visual ode, exploring the innate beauty of repurposed materials and/or found objects to express our relationship with time for "Dimension: A Love Letter to Collage & Assemblage".
Artists based in the United States are eligible to submit. Accepted artwork may be shipped to the gallery.
Artwork will focus on expressing our relationship with time—past, present, and future.
Artists may submit 1, 2, or 3 pieces for consideration. Artwork does not need to incorporate recycled materials to be considered. Entry in this call does not guarantee inclusion in the exhibition. This exhibition will take place with the Howard County Arts Council (HoCo Arts) in Ellicott City, MD.
Entry fee is $25.
