CALL FOR ART

DREAMS AND VISIONS

O’Hanlon Gallery Exhibition
July 8 – August 14, 2025
Juried by Toni Littlejohn

Image art by Steve Coleman

DESCRIPTION

Dreams and Visions in art are a familiar motif. Mysterious and otherworldly images can represent our subconscious thoughts, emotions and desires. 

Surrealist Artists, and Symbolists, used dreams, free association, and writing to tap into their imagination.

Julie Lageir’s “La Sortie”, Henri Rousseau’s “The Sleeping Gypsy”, Mark Chagall’s “Passage Bleu” depict the surreal nature of images that defy logic and conventional reality.  The dream in art is a wandering spirit on the path of the imagination: art that asks us to examine the link between the visible and the invisible.  

This exhibit asks you to explore your inner dream state. We encourage your interpretation of this theme. 

All mediums welcome. Including video*

* If you do want to submit video, you will need to provide the system for displaying it (monitor no larger than 15”) and earbuds if music is part of the experience. The video will have to automatically run in a loop.

THIS IS AN IN-PERSON /
IN-GALLERY SHOW ONLY
