A self-portrait is an artistic representation of oneself, created by the artist. It can be made in various mediums, including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, or digital art. Self-portraits go beyond simply capturing a likeness; they often reflect the artist’s emotions, identity, and personal perspective. Some self-portraits are highly realistic, while others may be abstract, symbolic, or experimental, offering insight into the artist’s inner world and creative vision.

In this exhibit, we welcome artists to submit their own self-portraits.
