Entries are invited for the following sections:
Mystery Section – It’s in the Bag
A bag of tricks? What’s in the bag? What IS the bag? Limitless, imaginative, creative opportunity. Delve in or deconstruct. Guide or be guided by the contents. Let the cat out of the bag!
Children’s Section – ‘Lost at Sea’
Step into the world of Tangaroa and his brothers. Maui and his mighty hook. Explore the wonders of the natural world beneath the waves or dive into Greek mythology be it Mermaids or Water Dragons, Greek Gods and Goddesses, Poseidon or Amphitrite. Sunken ships and Treasure troves lost at sea waiting to be discovered and brought to life in a creative masterpiece.
Open Section – Colour – ‘Spice of Life’
Variety is the ‘Spice of Life’ Sights, sounds, and smells that evoke images of colourful markets selling spices of burnt orange and golden brown, Overflowing baskets of chilies, seeds and nuts, Billowing scarves in reds and golds. A world of colour culture and creativity blended into Art.
Open Section – Art to Life
Art is what we call the thing an artist does. It’s not the medium or the oil or the price or whether it hangs on a wall or you eat it. What matters, what makes it art, is that the person who made it overcame the resistance, ignored the voice of doubt and made something worth making. Something risky. Something human. Art is not in the eye of the beholder. It’s in the soul of the artist. – Seth Godin
Open Section – Carbon Neutral – Kaitiakitanga
We try to find our way through the darkness and uncertainty, dancing between chaos and balance, harmony and dissonance. Our atmosphere is haunted by decisions from the past; a time capsule reaching into the present and shaking our future. As a caretaker of this planet what impact do you have on the environment? Come together to spread change, widening the light of opportunity. Create your message, your hope, your footprint.
