Through the Narrative
Themed Portfolio Exchange organized by Maggie Denk-Leigh
Description
This portfolio calls for artists who use the printed form to communicate message through the visual narrative. For those who seek to examine their personal or environmental histories through a critical lens, will use the printed edition as a call for awareness through message and narrative. In production of the edition, the call asks for a two part submission, one page as the limited print, the second as an examination or translation of the research. Each page 11" x 15" to be exhibited side-by-side.
