Ten Moir Gallery invites artists and photographers to submit work for the Lucid Dreams Art Challenge, an online art opportunity exploring dreams, fantasy, imagination, surrealism, symbolism, and the subconscious mind.
This theme is open to a wide range of interpretations. Artists may submit work inspired by dreamlike landscapes, imagined worlds, altered realities, quiet mysteries, surreal portraits, symbolic imagery, nighttime visions, memory, illusion, or the strange beauty of the unconscious. Both representational and abstract approaches are welcome.
Selected artists will be featured in Ten Moir Gallery’s online showcase, with award recognition given to standout submissions. This is an opportunity for artists to share work that feels imaginative, atmospheric, mysterious, or emotionally charged.
The free entry period has been extended, giving artists additional time to submit their first artwork at no cost.
