DESCRIPTION
Calling all Collaborative Artists to share your work. AND, If you haven’t yet tried to create collaboratively, we encourage you to stretch, get out of your comfort zone, find an art partner or two (or three or more) and get to work!

Collaborative arts practice involves artists working closely together, often over extended periods of time, to make art. It harnesses the experiences and skills of each person taking part to give meaning and creative expression to the project.

Collaboration builds comradeship as artists move toward a common goal. Often it results in the transfer of technical skills and knowledge from one artist to another. Two or more people working together create something entirely different than each person working alone. It is a symbiosis that results in a new type of work entirely.

Today there are many examples of collaborative art projects in public art and large festivals. Existing works can be enhanced and changed into something completely new through the generative experience of mutual creativity.

Ways of collaborating are as unique as the individuals involved in the project. Agree on your own “rules” and have fun!

Each submitted work must be created by at least 2 people, and one person cannot claim more than 75% of the work.

SUBMISSION DETAILS:

Each artist team may submit up to 3 images of work for consideration into this juried show.  All media welcome.  If you want to show multiple views of an installation or sculpture, you must do so in one composite image.
