CALL FOR ENTRIES

Beauty & Decay

This exhibition invites artists to explore the delicate balance between growth and decline, elegance and erosion. From fleeting blossoms to weathered ruins, we celebrate how beauty often reveals itself most powerfully in moments of transformation and impermanence. 

January 22, 2026 - February 21, 2026

Entry Deadline: December 6, 2025

This exhibit will be in the gallery and online. The New Mexico Art

League Exhibition Committee will jury exhibit.

Possible subjects might include natural cycles, aging materials, weathered architecture, shifting landscapes, or any visual expression of transformation and impermanence.

Artists are invited to reflect on the powerful contrast between what flourishes and what fades. From blooming flowers to crumbling walls, Beauty & Decay explores how TIME, CHANGE, and IMPERFECTION can reveal UNEXPECTED GRACE. Through this lens, we celebrate transformation and the quiet elegance found in impermanence, where the passing of time becomes its own kind of beauty.
