The Isle of Wight Young Artist Award is back. Brave Island are excited to team up with Quay Arts to bring the third instalment of this competition following the success of the last two years’ exhibitions.
Applications are now open to submit your artwork until the 24th September. A panel of judges from Brave Island and Quay Arts will decide on a shortlist, who will have the opportunity to have their work exhibited to the public in the Clayden Gallery at Quay Arts.
All shortlisted artists will be invited to a special launch event for the month-long exhibition where the winner will be announced.
No set theme or subject
Your artwork can be in any medium (photography, graphic design, painting etc.), and any size, including 3D work and moving image. It can be wall mounted, displayed on plinths, or if moving image then on TV screens.
There is no set theme or subject so you have complete creative freedom, this is an opportunity to showcase your skills as an artist.
You can submit more than one piece of work, but each entry will be considered separately unless they are entered as part of a series. For example, three photographs which are designed to be exhibited together.
Practical info
To apply, please tell us why you would like to take part in this opportunity and tell us about your piece of work. You can then upload an image of your work, if there are multiple then you can upload a zip file.
If you are shortlisted you must be able to provide the physical artwork for the exhibition to Quay Arts on the 1st or 2nd of October.
Opportunity Date and Time
The exhibition of shortlisted entries will open on Saturday 5th October and run until Sunday 3rd November.
