ARTIST OPEN CALL (FROM SLAG, ST LOUIS ARTISTS GUILD)
JURIED SHOW SUBMISSION (JUROR, SHEM)
STILLPOINT: THE ART OF QUIET COMPOSITION
Saint Louis Artist Guild invites artists to submit work that interprets the theme : Stillpoint: The Art of Quiet Composition.
This juried exhibition explores balance, simplicity and a measured minimalistic approach in creating abstract art. A quiet composition might manifest itself through limited color palettes, simple shapes , and an emphasis on both the positive and negative spaces (surfaces). The spaces within the composition become as important as the content itself and encourages a deeper engagement from both artist and viewer, reflective of a visually meditative experience.
Overall, a Quiet Composition is about finding beauty in simplicity, stillness and balance.
Artists are encouraged to interpret A Quiet Composition broadly and in their own distinctive voice, using a variety of artistic mediums including: mixed media, painting, collage & photography.
