transcendence | first edition | call for artists
Will future generations grasp the depth of our love, the transformations we undergo, and the mysteries we conceal just beneath the surface?
Passion, conflict, love- a potent fusion lies hidden within canvases, photographs, sculptures, and countless other mediums. These emotions, often delicately woven into each piece, form a landscape that is both intensely personal, profoundly universal, and transcendent. Each work serves as a doorway to the artist’s soul, embodying unspoken struggles and quiet triumphs.
The emergence of art and the artist’s inner world has captivated humanity for millennia. What unseen processes lie behind the mystery of creation? This journey of transcendence, from thought to tangible form, mirrors the rhythm of the seasons. Each stage, like spring’s awakening or autumn’s surrender, holds its own energy and emotion, evolving from conception to completion, as complex and layered as life itself.
With this exhibition, we invite you to step into our world, a space where dreams become reality, where thoughts move from mind to wall, from shadow to spotlight, from bud to bloom, and toward ultimate transcendence.

Our exhibition catalogs, both digital and printed, are state-of-the-art. They present the artist's profile in a magazine-like format, making them valuable beyond the exhibition itself. The catalog will be permanently displayed on our website and continuously circulated by artists, art collectors, and enthusiasts.
We facilitate direct connections between artists and collectors and do not charge a commission. Each sale happens directly between the artist and the customer. If you would like us to broker the sale, a 20% VAT will be applied on top of your initial price so please take that into consideration when pricing your works.
Printing and Framing Support:
If you're an accepted artist facing difficulties shipping your work to us, you can send us photos of your work. We'll print and frame them for you at no additional cost. Rest assured, we strive to match the quality of your original artwork as closely as possible.
Frame sizes available:
1. 32 x 32 cm
