There is no submission fee and no participation fee as we firmly believe in providing an accessible platform for artists to share their voices and stories.
The concept of the apocalypse resonates deeply within our collective consciousness, symbolizing both ultimate destruction and profound transformation. By exploring apocalyptic themes, we confront our deepest fears, our hopes for survival, and the potential for rebirth and renewal. This exhibition aims to provide a platform for artists to interpret and respond to the idea of the apocalypse, fostering a dialogue about its significance in our past, present, and future.
🌍 themes to explore
visions of destruction
Artworks that depict the catastrophic events and scenarios that could lead to the end of the world, exploring the causes and immediate impact of such disasters.
survival and resilience
Pieces that highlight the human spirit's capacity to endure and adapt in the face of apocalyptic challenges, focusing on stories of survival and resilience.
what is a modern apocalypse
Creative representations of the world after an apocalyptic event, imagining the new realities, altered landscapes, and societal changes that might emerge.
mythologies and revival

The world will not end with a bang, or a boom but at the hands of those who think they know best...
