Resilience

This exhibition invites artists to explore the many dimensions of resilience — the capacity to endure, adapt, and grow in the face of challenge and change. Resilience examines themes of strength and vulnerability, struggle and recovery, loss and renewal. The exhibition encourages works that reflect personal, social, environmental, or emotional experiences of perseverance, revealing the ways individuals and communities navigate adversity and transformation. Through diverse interpretations, artists are invited to consider how resilience shapes identity, fosters hope, and inspires growth.

If selected, Artists must deliver and collect their artwork to the LSA Art Room by the agreed deadlines.

Any artwork selected for show can be made available for purchase if the Artist desires. Artists are not obligated to sell their work.

The sale price will be decided by the Artist. Should a sale be made, 10% commission will be taken by the LSA. Purchases will be taken via the LSA payment system and the Artist reimbursed their share at the end of the exhibition.
