The Blue Koi Gallery is thrilled to announce the Wild & Tamed Juried Art Competition, an exciting opportunity for artists worldwide to showcase their unique perspectives on the delicate balance between untamed and controlled elements in our world. Whether you’re an emerging artist or a seasoned professional, this competition invites you to interpret the theme of Wild & Tamed through your artwork.
If you’re passionate about exploring the contrast between the raw beauty of nature and the serene, curated aspects of life, this is the perfect platform for you. Artists are encouraged to submit pieces that reflect the intersection of wild landscapes, fierce wildlife, calm domestic scenes, cultivated gardens, and abstract expressions of untamed emotions. With no limitations on artistic style, the Wild & Tamed competition celebrates the full spectrum of creative expression!
Theme Exploration: Wild vs. Tamed
The competition’s theme, Wild & Tamed, opens a world of creative possibilities. Here are a few examples to inspire your submission:
Wild Elements: Untamed landscapes, powerful wildlife, and the raw energy of nature. Think rugged mountains, wild rivers, turbulent oceans, and the fierce spirit of animals in their natural habitat.
Tamed Elements: These are the more controlled, peaceful aspects of our world, such as manicured gardens, still life compositions, and serene domestic scenes. You may also explore the calm, ordered beauty of abstract art that contrasts with the chaos of nature.
