Emerge

New Call for Art! Emerge - San Diego Jewelry Lab’s Juried Spring Exhibition

As the sun warms the earth, green things emerge, slowly unfolding their leaves.
As the cold winds depart, wild animals emerge, leaving their winter dens.
As the vaccines arrive, we too emerge, hugging friends and revisiting normalcy.
In this time and place, like none we've ever known, what does it mean to emerge?

San Diego Jewelry Lab invites all jewelry/metals arts artists to enter their work in our upcoming online exhibit "Emerge". Pieces will be juried by San Diego Jewelry Lab co-owners Anne Wolf and Ame Stanko on craftsmanship, creativity and use of the theme and our panel of instructor judges will award prizes for the best submissions. Exhibition is open to metalsmiths worldwide. Work can be any size; wearable, functional, or sculptural; made within the last year.  Artists are welcome to offer their work for sale with no commission - buyers will be able to contact artists directly. All accepted entries will be featured on our website and social media feeds and at Metal Arts Adventures, our live online show (great for search engine optimization). Entry fee: $10 per entry, limit 3 entries per person.
Submission Deadline: 5/20/21

Photo guidelines
This is an online exhibition. The photo of your piece IS the entry. Submit up to 3 images for each piece:
  1. One photo showing the whole piece on a plain background (white or a neutral color is best).
  2. One photo showing detail and/or scale.
  3. One photo showing the piece on the body or in an environment that helps to tell the story of the piece. 
  4. Include in your image file names your last  name, the title of the piece and image number. Ex. WolfTreeBrooch01.jpg.
Tips: Be sure that the piece is well lit and in focus (clear and sharp). If possible, use a photo tent & lights or photograph outside on a cloudy day.
