Get matched →Wabi-Sabi: Unexpected Beauty is an exhibition exploring the simple appeal found in imperfection, incompleteness, and impermanence. Inspired by the Japanese aesthetic philosophy of wabi-sabi, this exhibition will showcase art that reflects the passage of time, transformation, or growth and evolution. Artists are encouraged to submit work that broadens the concept of beauty, revealing it through subtlety and simplicity, worn surfaces, or evidence of time and use. Art should reflect a commitment to authenticity.
All media will be considered, including sculpture, painting, photography, ceramics, fiber arts, and mixed-media. Any size accepted.
