Description
Artist Open Call - Printmaking
Overt Space Gallery + Gift is a vibrant and creative space for artists and makers, split between gallery and gift shop. Perfect for emerging and mid-career artists seeking places to share their work in a gallery setting with lots of foot traffic, as well as a high conversion rate with online sales.
The theme, PRINTMAKING, requires artists to create an image and impose it onto another surface. This centuries-old technique highlights captivating imagery, fine attention to detail, and awe-inspiring effects. Both realism and abstract art will be considered. Our gallery features contemporary art and the concept is considered in judging.
