VISUAL ART 2027 Print Issue
Overview
So to Speak is looking for art that is implicitly or explicitly intersectional. Artists of all backgrounds and experiences are encouraged to submit work of any visual medium that is not video/audio-based. We are excited to see everything from digital drawings and oil paintings to sculptural works and comics. We strongly believe that artists do not have to have classical training to make great art. We love art that challenges us--politically, emotionally, spiritually--through a variety of traditional & experimental mediums. We love color, collage, and overtly political themes. Our favorite artists include Amy Sherald, Tschabalala Self, Sasha Gordon, Ana Mendieta, Jenna Gribbon, and Martha Rosler. All contributors will receive a $100 prize. Formal Guidelines You may submit up to 5 pieces of art per submission period, whether in a single entry or multiple entries. All submissions must be in jpg, png, or tif formats at 300 dpi. Please label each file as LastName_Title. A Cover Letter that includes your name, address, phone number, email address, how you heard about So to Speak, and brief bio describing your background as a writer or artist and any applicable awards or publications. A brief description of how you see your piece (implicitly or explicitly) fitting into our intersectional feminist mission. We do not accept content generated or edited by AI. Please don't use AI for your cover letter or artist statement—we would rather hear your authentic voice and do not evaluate based on grammar.
