ABOUT:
Entitled '50 Faces', the theme looks at contemporary portraiture. In this call we are inviting 50 artists to demonstrate their artistic approach in presenting self-portraits or portraiture.

Portraits are an intimate view of the concept of 'identity', which present a description of the character, sentiment or identity of an individual or place. These visual clues about the subject are presented in various ways such as employing a particular technique or the application of varying media.
