Mother Earth is an international group exhibition of women’s art exploring the relationship between woman, nature, and spirituality. The project approaches art as a space of care, restoration, and responsibility for the future of the planet.
At the center of the exhibition is the woman — her perspective, lived experience, and influence on the environment. Through artistic practices, the participating artists not only articulate ideas but actively shape cultural, ecological, and social processes, proposing new models of coexistence with nature in which art becomes a tangible instrument of transformation.
The project is open to a wide range of artistic genres, media, techniques, and objects. We welcome interdisciplinary and experimental practices, including but not limited to painting, sculpture, installation, performance, video, sound, digital and hybrid forms.
The use of natural, organic, and environmentally conscious materials within artistic practices is highly encouraged, as well as approaches that engage with corporeality, materiality, and natural processes.
