Creative and Visual Arts Gallery

Participants are encouraged to submit scanned/computerized graphics or photographs (in electronic format) of creative and visual artworks in categories such as plain photography, paintings, drawings, posters, greeting cards and textile designs. They should submit not more than two original artworks in each category. We request participants to submit alongside their contributions a brief 200-word caption/description of their perception of each of their artworks submitted. In other words, the lesson(s) to be learnt/message they believe that each artwork is communicating. This shall include the kind of materials or equipment used to produce the artwork, what inspired/motivated them to produce and submit such a work, its production and/or shooting date and site/scene. Other students/pupils would also be encouraged to suggest captions for any of the published artworks despite the contributions of the sender of the artwork. However all potential participants are required to include their identities/contacts, such as their names, age, school, class, sex and e-mail address on each entry outside the borders of the design.
