Call to Artists for Submissions
Proposal Entry Deadline: Friday, September 11, 2020
For the past five years, Illumination, an exhibition of artist-made lanterns, has marked the transition of season's change and the year's end at CAM. This year, deep in the COVID crisis, we ask artists to examine their own metaphorical concept of light.
Luminescence often symbolizes transformation, enlightenment, or an epiphany. Glowing lamplight might remind us of home and safety, the porch-light left on for your return. We talk of our inner light or how someone can light up a room. Candles lit in remembrance show that a memory of a loved one still burns bright. The beam of a lighthouse and an airplane's runway can guide our way. Light makes things visible, sweeping away the shadows, and showing what hides in darkness.
In your work, through content, style, and choice of material, show us what light means to you.
