EXHIBIT DESCRIPTION
Works submitted for this all media juried exhibit should reflect the push/pull of noise or silence. The two concepts of opposites will be examined in this exhibit, working as a force against and alongside one another. Artworks submitted for this exhibit should either be comprised of clean, simple lines and be silent visually, or the artworks should be multi-layered, messy and thereby visually noisy. Works that are conceptually silent or noisy are also considered. Emphasis on multi-media works, but open to works in all media, styles and techniques. As always, we encourage artists to interpret the theme from their own direction using the focus of their media and emphasizing their own individual styles as it applies to this theme.
