Convey the magic of inspiration through your unique perspectives

ABOUT

Exhibizone proudly presents Inspirations, a unique smart online international group exhibition to inspire the world by showcasing inspirations in art.

What inspires you? Where do you look for Inspirations? 

Without a doubt, art inspires us all. It pulls us out of our minds into a different horizon in time, another location, a different story, or existence.

Art provides meaning to our lives and helps us to see the world from a different perspective and to understand our world.

"Inspirations" is a theme that is boundless in its potential, encompassing the diverse sources and profound impacts that fuel the creative spirit. We invite you to interpret this theme in your own distinctive way, capturing the essence of what inspires you as an artist. Your inspiration could come from nature's wonders, the human experience, emotions, music, literature, or any other aspect of life that has ignited your passion.

For Inspirations 2023-24, we are looking for all that inspires you and make its way to your art world. Is it a person? A scene? a landscape? Or an idea that strikes you out of nowhere? 

The goal is to inspire the world by sharing what inspires you and your art.

For some, Inspirations might be linked to an emotion, a feeling, or a memory. Others may find their inspirations in social events and global news. We welcome a broad spectrum of artistic expressions, including but not limited to the following categories:

Nature's Symphony: Use your artistic talents to depict the natural world in its most inspiring form. Whether it's a breathtaking landscape, a close-up of a delicate flower, or the powerful presence of wildlife, we welcome all interpretations of nature's beauty.

Human Connections: Explore the depth of human emotions and relationships through your artwork. Whether it's a portrayal of joy, sorrow, love, or resilience, convey the power of these connections through your chosen medium.

Cultural Expressions: Showcase the rich tapestry of human culture and heritage as a source of inspiration. This category invites you to draw inspiration from the traditions, rituals, and customs that resonate with you.

Musical Inspiration: Music can be a profound wellspring of creativity. Visualize the rhythms and melodies that inspire you, translating them into captivating visual artworks.

Literary Inspirations: Capture the essence of your favorite literary works or authors in your art. Bring your beloved characters or stories to life, or express the emotions evoked by the written word.

Social and global events: Showcase today's world from your unique perspective to increase awareness and extend the importance of diversity and acceptance.

Abstract Inspirations: Give your imagination free rein to explore abstract interpretations of inspiration. Create artworks that convey the intangible forces that drive your creative spirit. Let your artwork be a visual representation of your innermost thoughts and musings.
