All Mediums Contest: One Word

Dear members,

I am pleased to announce another all mediums contest projecteducate is hosting for the coming month. Please carefully read all the details below to find out how to enter!

The Prompt:

We often find that a piece of art can be described with one word, one word that encapsulates everything about it. For this contest, we'd like to challenge you to approach this notion in the reverse order. We'd like you to pick one word, and create a piece of art around that word. Pick the word first, then decide what you could create to turn that word into an entire piece of art.

Important Guidelines:

• We will absolutely favor those who choose descriptive or symbolic words (i.e: nefarious, serendipity, ethereal, iridescent, epiphany, etc) and create a whole piece around that word rather than more literal cases like painting a dog and using the word "dog" or writing a poem about loss and using the word "loss". The more thought you put into your word and your piece, the better your chances are.
• If you would like to choose a word in a different language, that would be acceptable as long as you can provide us with a translation of it.
• Make sure that when we look at your piece of art and the word you chose they make sense with each other in a meaningful way. The word you chose is incredibly important, and you should absolutely be choosing the word FIRST and only creating your piece after having chosen it. That's the entire point of the contest.
