Soft Power Exhibition Open Call

Description

RevArt invites artists to submit works for Soft Power, a Women’s History Month exhibition held in Los Angeles, CA.

Soft Power celebrates subtle strength, expressed through care, resilience, intuition, and the beauty of everyday gestures. The exhibition highlights qualities often associated with women’s experiences but universal in their emotional impact.

This year, the exhibition will place special attention on textile-based and fiber artworks. We are especially interested in works that incorporate stitching, weaving, embroidery, quilting, fabric layering, or other tactile processes that convey softness through material.

However, all wall-hung 2D mediums are welcome, including painting, drawing, photography, printmaking, and mixed media.

We are seeking artworks that explore:

Texture, tactility, softness, or delicate craftsmanship

Slow processes such as sewing, weaving, dyeing, or hand-building

Themes of memory, care, healing, patience, or personal narrative

Subtle or expressive visual interpretations of emotional strength

Material-driven works that highlight detail, craft, and quiet resilience

Calm, elegant, uplifting aesthetics suitable for a commercial gallery environment

 

All artworks must be ready to hang.

Exhibition Period: March – June, 2026

Submissions will be reviewed by art committee. Selected artists will be notified through email. 

RevArt is a hub for visual artists to advance their careers. We operate alternative art spaces in Minneapolis, Richmond, Toronto, Winnipeg, Atlanta, DC, Charlottesville, and Nashville. Our mission is to make art accessible to all while creating more opportunities for emerging and underrepresented artists.
