Be it species, relationship, self, culture, society, technology, place, ecosystem, or idea; all things are continuously evolving. This constant state of change is often gradual. It is not the big bang of revolution, but more subtle and nuanced and its full effects may not be realized for generations. We see, feel and participate in this process everyday and in all facets of life but rarely ever appreciate it. NEXT Gallery is seeking artwork that reflects the myriad of ways we observe or experience evolution. This is a national juried call, open to artwork in all mediums.
