Analog: An Antidote to AI Art
In an era shaped by artificial intelligence, Analog: An Antidote to AI Art celebrates the enduring power of human imagination, intuition, and authentic artistic expression. This exhibition invites artists whose work reflects the distinctly human experience of making, embracing experimentation, imperfection, memory, materiality, and lived experience.
Rather than rejecting technology, Analog asks a timely question: What makes art unmistakably human?
We welcome original work in all visual art media and genres, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, printmaking, textiles, fiber, photography, installation, mixed media, assemblage, drawing, book arts, jewelry, sound art, olfactive art, biophilic practices, and other forms that demonstrate personal vision and meaningful engagement with materials and process.
As AI-generated imagery becomes ubiquitous, Analog turns our attention to what algorithms cannot replicate: intuition, vulnerability, touch, chance, personal history, and the countless decisions embedded in the creative process. The exhibition celebrates originality as an expression of curiosity, resilience, and the uniquely human impulse to make meaning from the world around us. We seek work that reveals touch, struggle, experimentation, art that reflects the imperfect, unpredictable, and deeply personal nature of human creation.
CASH PRIZES: $1000 First Place; $500 Second Place. Deadline: 9/24
