Paper national juried exhibition

USA

"I wish I could just project everything on the paper."
Patti Smith

With Paper, artists are invited to submit works that explore the creative potential of this ancient and timeless material. Whether used as a surface, substrate or sculptural element, paper must be a central component of each piece. We welcome a wide range of techniques—show us what you can do with paper, whether it’s drawing, painting, printing, folding, sculpting, collaging, sewing, binding, and beyond. Mixed media works are encouraged, as long as paper plays a significant role in the final composition. This exhibition challenges artists to rethink the boundaries of paper. How far can it be pushed, marked, transformed, or reimagined? At what point does paper cease to be paper? Surprise us with your approach and push the boundaries of this everyday material into something transcendent.
