Indulge your senses and explore the multifaceted allure of "Lush" in our upcoming exhibition. Beyond its botanical connotations, "Lush" invites artists to delve into the  depths of human nature, overindulgence, and extravagance.Explore realms where you can portray the consequences of unrestrained desire, reflecting on themes of consumerism, decadence, and the line between opulence and responsibility. Take inspiration from “Lush” verdant vistas, overripe peony blossoms, and our lust for May flowers after the austere winter season. Experiment with rich textures and dramatic colors that transport viewers into worlds of sensory abundance. Evoke sensations and provoke thought as you redefine the essence of "Lush" through your art.
