Fashion can define status, culture, and personality. What a person wears and how they wear it can reveal who they are, where they come from, and what they value. It is an essential part of human life and an industry. Fashion is also an avenue for art. Whether utilitarian or outlandish, it is an expression that is integrated with everyday life.
Mosaic Art Collective in partnership with Fishtoes Vintage + Treasures is seeking submissions that represent the union of art and fashion. Works that reference, incorporate, or are themselves fashion are welcome for this juried open call. Work can be innovative or interpretive, as long as it speaks to the theme of fashion. Looking for unique materials to jump start your piece? Check out Fishtoes boo boo bin to get inspired by patterns, colors and designs at a deep discount! All media are welcome, excluding reproductions and AI generated work.

Mosaic Art Collective and its jury committee reserve the right to decline, remove, or exclude any submitted work from consideration or display at their sole discretion. This includes, but is not limited to, works that:
Do not align with the theme, vision, or curatorial direction of the exhibition
Do not meet the technical, dimensional, or presentation standards outlined in the submission requirements
Are deemed inappropriate for the gallery's venue, audience, or community context
Contain content that is considered hateful, discriminatory, harmful, or offensive in nature
Do not meet the exhibition's display or installation requirements upon delivery
Submission of work does not guarantee acceptance or exhibition. This does not mean your work isn't "good" or "valued" it just means the gallery didn't feel it fit for any number of reasons. All curatorial decisions are final.
All work must be ready to hang, with the proper hanging wires. If you are not familiar with wiring your work, please review the proper way to wire with d-rings and picture-hanging wire. This will ensure the longevity of your work and will make it more appealing to potential buyers.
Mosaic Exhibitions Committee reserves the right to not accept a piece of work that isn't prepared to hang on the wall. There is a $5 wiring fee due at the time of drop off if you do not have a method to hang your work. Mosaic recognizes that some art can not have a wire attached to the piece in that event please contact the exhibitions committee to communicate your needs for your piece so that the gallery can be prepared to properly and safely care for your art.
Art work that is not picked up at the end of an exhibition is subject to a $10/day Storage Fee. After a month if artwork is abandoned it becomes property of the gallery and will be processed at the discretion of the gallery. Please take a moment to note the Pick up and Drop off Windows to arrange to do so during those times. Or contact exhibitions@mosaicartcollective.com to arrange for a different time.
