“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated” ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Welcome to Fusion Art’s 5th Annual Into the Wild International Online Juried Art Exhibition.
For its 23rd quarterly art exhibition Fusion Art invited both 2D and 3D artists were encouraged to share their best art and photography depicting wildlife. The wildlife theme included any undomesticated animal species including any wild mammal, wild fish, wild bird or wild reptile. The work could range from realism to surrealism to abstraction and all artists, regardless of location or experience, were encouraged to submit their best representational or abstract wildlife art and photography.
We once again received a diverse collection of quality artwork from artists all around the world, including the US, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, China, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Belgium and Denmark. Overall, the gallery judged 232 entries and accepted 93 artworks into the exhibition, which will be featured on the website for 3 months starting on March 15, 2023.
In this quarterly themed exhibition, Fusion Art presents awards in three categories: Traditional Art, Photography & Digital Art, and 3-Dimensional Art. The Into the Wild Best in Show winners are Lisa Perrin-Kosmo for her water-based oil on canvas, “IN THE LIGHT”, David G.
