2021 Neo SALA Exhibition

The Theme

We're looking for artworks of any medium, inspired by the theme of ULTRAVIOLET. The Neo Ambassadors shared some thoughts reflecting on the theme to help you get started.

• How does light change the way we perceive the world?
• What light forms exist in nature? The sun? An aurora borealis? Light emitted by deep sea creatures? Fire? Make an artwork in response to this.
• Make an artwork informed by an art movement that emphasises light - think Impressionism, Pointillism, Installation, or even the technique of chiaroscuro.
• Make an artwork out of materials that reflect light

Your artwork is not limited to these ideas, we welcome any interpretation of the theme!

How do I get involved?

• Create an artwork in response to ULTRAVIOLET - just make sure that it can be exhibited online!
• Please submit your work using our online Registration Form.
• This will either involve submitting a high quality photo of your work if it's a physical object (a painting, sculpture, etc.) or a file if it's a digital artwork or photograph. If you're keen to submit a video or animation, please share the file with us via a Google Drive Link.
