Description
ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR 2025 analyzes the relationship between body and space, and the hybridization between identities and cultural/physical/social/urban settings in contemporary times, through two main sections: MIXING IDENTITIES and FUTURE LANDSCAPES.
MIXING IDENTITIES analyzes the hidden parts of our identities, through an immersive experience inside the fascinating universe of the complex labyrinths of our consciousness. The human body is a changing system that connects us with other bodies and spaces to perceive the surrounding reality; a strong communication system with its own language and infinite ways of expression.
FUTURE LANDSCAPES are abstract, infinite and conceptual, associated with a sense of freedom and infinite extension. Primarily experienced with the mind, spaces redefine their limits and borders, transforming surfaces in an open flow of pure ideas. This section focuses on the concept of the borders and the structures between body, mind and soul, the human identity and the city, the space and the ground.
How to Apply
To take part in the selection, send your works’ submissions with a CV/biography, some still images (for video art), links to videos/performances and pictures via e-mail to director@itsliquid.com or fill out the form below

Manchester State Park
Port Orchard, WA
CAMPBIENT Volume 6 takes place at Manchester State Park, with stunning views of Puget Sound, historic military structures, wooded hiking trails, and over 3,400 feet of saltwater shoreline.
CAMPBIENT is an annual sound art residency that brings together people for 44 hours to conceptualize, produce, and record 44 minutes of sound art compositions all while camping in a state park. Participants are randomly split into groups, each responsible for one portion of the composition with the only caveat being that a continuous field recording base track is audible throughout the piece.
The residency includes sound-related workshops, creative activities, and a start-to-finish audio production process, the results of which are pressed on vinyl records and distributed digitally. Participating artists camp out, share meals, and collaborate in field recording, sound-making, and creative play. CAMPBIENT is held in a new state park every year, and all audio production and activities are off-grid and battery-powered.

Description
Allied Arts is pleased to announce for its next Artist Award the focus is Digital Art. Digital art is a simple term for a big topic. It spans everything from iPhone sketches to electronic paintings, 8-bit throwbacks and mind-blowing CGI. Many acclaimed artists have decided to create and exhibit their work digitally, while budding creatives need only look to their smartphones to get started.
Submissions are due June1, 2025. Winners will receive an unrestricted cash award ranging from $1000 to $5000. A total of eight awards will be granted with two of these awards restricted for emerging artists. Artists must be a minimum of 18 years old to apply and must live in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Alaska or Montana.
Artists are encouraged to submit a maximum of 10 examples of their work and these submissions must be accompanied by a brief statement describing the inspiration and process for creation of the artwork. AI assisted work should show process and prompts. Submissions should also include the artist’s resume.
Digital art is a form of art that uses digital technology in the creative process, and can include a wide range of mediums and techniques. Digital art can include digital drawings, paintings, illustrations, photos, videos, animation, audio and sculptures. It can also be computer generated, scanned, or interactive. Digital artists can use a variety of hardware and software, including drawing tablets, stylus pens, and computer software like Adobe Photoshop, Krita, Corel Painter, Clip Studio Paint, and Procreate. This is the tip of the iceberg for Digital Art creation. AI assisted artwork is welcome. One of the main characteristics of digital art is the interaction with the viewer. Their installations often allow the creation of immersive experiences that allow users to actively participate in the work. Digital art encompasses a wide variety of forms, styles, mediums and platforms. Its artistic manifestations include everything from static images to immersive videos, 3D experiences or complex animations. Thanks to the internet and digital platforms, users can share and distribute their artistic pieces to a global audience. This feature has democratized access to art, making it possible for the artistic community to discover and appreciate digital works. Innovation is one of the main characteristics of digital art. The growing technological evolution and the emergence of new tools for creating offer artists a wide variety of techniques to explore new areas. Advanced editing programs, 3D modeling and augmented reality tools are just some of the technologies that are driving digital art.
The Allied Arts Award Committee can’t wait to review all the submissions and help propel the careers of digital artists embracing this new frontier of visual art.
The 2025 Artist Awards in Digital Art are supported by Piroshky Piroshky and C.Y. Lee.

CARE
Do you hear a noun, a verb, an imperative? Do you feel comforted, overwhelmed, or inspired by the sound and meaning of the word Care?
Hera Gallery is interested in how we as artists and as society relate to the concept of care at this moment in time.
From taking care and giving care to self-care, and the call to care - the idea of care runs through all our lives from beginning to end. Human care, animal care, environmental care, or caring for an idea, a faith, a passion, a commitment. Care is associated with cultural connections, age, and gender. How is this shifting? How do we find balance when engaged in caregiving at all levels?
How does the word Care resonate with you, which images, stories, and sentiments does it bring forth in you? Which role does care play in your life as an artist and in your artistic practice?
Juror: Priya N. Green, Director of the Chen Art Gallery
Application Deadline: February 28th, 2025
Exhibition Dates: May 10th - June 14th, 2025
Notification of Acceptance: Hera Gallery will contact artists by April 9th, 2025 regarding their inclusion in CARE.
Delivery Due Date: Artwork must be at the Gallery by Thursday, May 1st.
Artwork Delivery: Local delivery instructions will be sent to all accepted artists.
Return Shipping: The artist is responsible for all shipping costs and shipping containers. The artist must include a prepaid return shipping label.
Sales Commission: As an artist-run nonprofit, Hera takes no commission in our national juried exhibitions, 100% of sales go directly to the artist.
Insurance: Although the utmost care will be taken in handling your work, Hera Gallery assumes no responsibility for damage, loss, or theft. Artists are responsible for their own insurance.
Photography/Publicity: Hera Gallery reserves the right to photograph work for publicity. By entering this exhibition, you agree to the use of your name, likeness, certain personal information, and artwork in any publicity material or documentation developed for the exhibition.
About Hera Gallery:
Hera Educational Foundation and Gallery celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2024. As one of the first women art cooperatives in the United States, we continue to promote contemporary professional artists through a comprehensive exhibition schedule of member work, curated, and juried intersectional social justice shows. Together with thought-provoking programming our organization encourages dialogue that enriches the cultural life of our non-urban Southern RI community. We provide a venue for young talent to find a public voice, and creative support to local health services. Since its inception in 1974, Hera has been resolutely dedicated to gender equity and feminist discourse to challenge perceptions and inspire social change.

New Visionary Magazine, Issue 14: The Manifestation Issue
We’re thrilled to announce that this is our first-ever themed issue, and the theme is Manifestation!
This special edition invites visual artists to explore and interpret the concept of manifestation through their own unique lens. As artists, you have the extraordinary ability to bring ideas, dreams, and intentions to life—turning a blank canvas, raw materials, or even a fleeting thought into something tangible, meaningful, and impactful.
Whether it’s about creating new identities, visualizing possibilities, mood boarding your wildest dreams, or transforming aspirations into reality, this issue celebrates the magic of aligning intention with action. From personal transformations to universal connections, we welcome diverse perspectives and interpretations for this special edition.
This issue will be curated by Marina Press Granger, founder of The Artist Advisory™ and an experienced curator who has dedicated her career to empowering artists. Her intention for this issue is to spotlight the power of creativity to shape not only artwork but also our lives and futures. Granger is the founder of The Artist Advisory™, a New York City consulting firm offering career guidance to visual artists, galleries, and art-minded businesses. With nearly 15 years of experience working in NYC galleries and museums, Granger curated numerous gallery exhibitions and art fair booths. In addition to her analytical business acumen, informed by a BA and MA in Art History, Granger incorporates the Principles of Classical Chinese Feng Shui to enhance the success of the artists and businesses she supports. Her work has been featured in Forbes, The Art Gorgeous, The Art Zealous, Time Out New York, and more. Born in Kyiv, Ukraine, Granger has lived in New York since 1991.
Eligibility: This international opportunity is open to artists of all experience levels. Selected artists will receive a 2-page spread, which includes a Q&A and multiple images of their artwork.
We accept all 2D & 3D mediums, including painting, drawing, photography, digital, prints, fiber art, collage, mixed media, sculpture, ceramics, and installation art.
Submission info:
You may submit 3-4 images of your work for $30, 5-6 images for $35, or 7-8 images for $40.
If selected, we require a $45 publishing fee prior to the magazine's release date. This fee helps us to cover the cost of printing and distributing the magazine to NYC-based art fairs.
Requirements:
Please be sure to include high-quality images of your work, 300 DPI, minimum 800 pixels wide
All 2D images must be cropped to show only the artwork
All 3D images must be photographed against a white background, except in the case of public art installations

Description
“Are you a friend of Dorothy?” is a queer camp-themed show embodying the energy of queer safe havens/oases, including Fire Island, Palm Springs, Saugatuck/Douglas MI, Val Kill, etc. It serves as a heartfelt reflection on the complex tapestry of summer and summer camp experiences that may have shaped us as queer youth, whether we were boldly out or quietly finding our way.
Named after a coded phrase used for queer signaling in the mid-20th century, this show celebrates and reflects upon the tireless work of our queer elders that paved the way and offers us a moment to breathe as we continue to fight in the trenches. It's a passionate exploration of what safety and sanctuary mean to each of us, a powerful reclamation of camp aesthetics that are intrinsically, unapologetically queer.
Close your eyes and imagine—what does queer liberation taste like, look like, feel like? In all the divisiveness and politicization of our identities, let’s take a moment to enjoy the beauty of our existence and celebrate the magic of being queer!
We highly encourage those with intersectional marginalized identities to apply and recognize the historical, current, and disproportionate disenfranchisement of members of our queer community. We also acknowledge that black and Indigenous trans and genderqueer people ARE queer culture, and we will prioritize underrepresented perspectives during our selection process.

Description
Fatness is beautiful. Fatness is powerful. Fatness is worthy.
The so-called “obesity epidemic” relies on outdated and racist metrics to justify systemic discrimination against fat people. From healthcare to social status, built environments to insurance policies, fat bodies are policed, medicalized, and marginalized. As diet culture resurges and media narratives revert to blatant fatphobia, fat individuals—especially QTBIPOC—are pressured to shrink, conform, and disappear.
FAT is a radical act of visibility. This exhibition unapologetically reclaims fatness as something to be honored, not erased. We are unapologetically owning and identifying with the word “fat” as an act of liberation and acknowledgment, rejecting diet culture and instead honoring fatness as a life source. We invite artists to share work that celebrates fat bodies, confronts the realities of fat oppression, and reimagines a world where fat people exist freely and joyfully.
Consider these questions as you create:
How has fatphobia shaped your experience of space, access, or identity?
In what ways does embracing fatness feel like an act of resistance?
What does fat joy, beauty, and liberation look like to you?
We welcome submissions in all mediums. Let’s take up space—boldly, loudly, and with love.
