WHAM Art Center invites artists to explore the boundless inspiration of blue in its many shades, moods, and meanings. From the deep indigos of twilight to the delicate sky blues of a spring morning, this exhibit celebrates the power of color as a source of emotion, reflection, and imagination. Inspired by the cyanotype process, known for its signature blue prints and experimental approach, we welcome works in all mediums—painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, digital art, mixed media, and more. Artists are encouraged to embrace the spirit of cyanotypes: unconventional, experimental, and evocative. Whether exploring the psychology of blue—its calm, melancholy, or meditative qualities—or simply reveling in the aesthetic beauty of the color, this exhibit is an invitation to let blue guide your creativity.
The exhibition is open to artists of all levels, ages 18+, residing in the United States. All media are eligible, including painting, drawing, photography, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, mixed media, collage, and recycled or upcycled art. Both 2D and 3D works are welcome. Artwork should be inspired by the color blue, its moods, symbolism, or the experimental spirit of the cyanotype process, though interpretation is open and flexible. All artwork must be original, created by the submitting artist, and completed within the past three years. AI-generated artwork is not eligible. Artwork previously shown at WHAM Gallery will not be accepted.
