Maryland Art Place (MAP),  in partnership with Lumina Solar, is excited to announce an open call for reGENERATE, an upcoming exhibition exploring the dynamic, controversial, and multifaceted concept of "energy." This exhibition aims to delve into the various interpretations and manifestations of energy. We are seeking artworks centric to energy (new and old) and any interpretations thereof. Artworks can be literal or abstract, but must tie-in with ideas surrounding energy and energy conservation: Key words: light, the built environment, conservation, physical energy, the sun, atmosphere, energy collection, energy sources etc...

We encourage artists to interpret this theme broadly and creatively. Submissions can explore, but are not limited to, the following aspects:

  • Kinetic and potential energy
  • Renewable and non-renewable energy sources
  • Cosmic and universal energies
  • Environmental impacts of energy production and consumption

Submission Guidelines:

  • All mediums are welcome, including painting, sculpture, photography, digital art, video, and mixed media.
  • Both individual and collaborative works are eligible.
  • Artists may submit up to three pieces for consideration.
  • Each submission must include:
  • Title, medium, dimensions, and year of creation
  • High-resolution images (JPEG or PNG, 300 dpi)
  • An artist statement (max 500 words) explaining how the work relates to the theme of energy
  • A brief artist biography (max 300 words)
  • Contact information (name, email, phone number)
