Theme Description
An exhibit exploring the quiet power, beauty, and meaning embedded in everyday objects, routines, and moments. From the mundane to the overlooked, this exhibit invites artists to reframe what we often take for granted and reveal the extraordinary within the ordinary. We are seeking works that examine daily life – household items, habitual gestures, familiar spaces, common materials, or repetitive actions – and transform them through observation, interpretation, or conceptual inquiry. Submissions may be literal, poetic, critical, humorous, nostalgic, or experimental.
