Call Description

What does God’s amazing love look like to you? How does it feel? If you had to paint it, or sculpt it, or use a variety of materials and media to depict it, what would you create? Is there an image that forms in your mind when you meditate on His love? There are many scriptures in the Bible mentioning God’s love toward us; scriptures like:

• Jeremiah 31:3 - "...Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you."
• John 3:16 - "For God SO loved the world, that He gave His only Son [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes on Him should not perish but have eternal life."
• Lamentations 3:22 - "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to an end;"

For this Virtual Reality (VR) online exhibition, Adonai Global Arts Fund (AGAF) is seeking submissions that depict the artist’s interpretation of God’s “Amazing Love” towards us. This exhibition invites visual artists to explore scriptural references of God’s majesty by putting an "image” to the “written words” of His "amazing love" found in the Bible.

Your artwork will be judged for its originality, style, technique, artistry, quality, and especially, adherence to the exhibition theme and intent.
