Manifest Creative Research Gallery and Drawing Center in Cincinnati, Ohio is seeking works which explore the theme of plant life (using formal or conceptual methods) for an upcoming exhibit, April 20 – May 18, 2012.

These may be in ways that are quite straightforward, or which are abstract, conceptual or in other ways surprising or inventive. Manifest is eager to see just how artists make work of any media or genre (painting, drawing, collage, photography, printmaking, sculpture, mixed media, video, and non-traditional art, etc.) using plant life as a source of inspiration and exploration.

Open to all artists. Students and professionals are equally encouraged to enter. Each exhibiting artist will receive one copy of the full-color exhibit catalog. $10 per work submitted.

Deadline: March 7, 2012.
