Purple can be as quiet as a lilac shadow or as vivid as a flash of violet. The Purple invites artists to explore how this color shapes an image, an atmosphere, or a story. We welcome new and existing works across visual media. Purple can dominate the palette or appear as a deliberate accent that draws the eye or changes the mood of the work.
