Fluid Patterns invites artists working in all mediums to explore water in the age of climate change. This group exhibition considers water as both a vital resource and a disruptive force—through flood, drought, rising seas, and shifting weather.
We are especially interested in how patterns—natural, visual, ephemeral, or symbolic—emerge from water’s behavior and our relationship to it. How do artists see, feel, or trace these patterns, and what do they reveal?
This national open call welcomes work in painting, sculpture, photography, video, digital art, and beyond. Artists may enter up to three original works that are new to the local public for juried selection.
