The Foundry Art Centre in Saint Charles, Missouri is seeking submissions for "Self Reflections" an exhibition asking all artists how artists reflect on themselves and create self portraits? Whether it's through abstract expression, photography, sculpture, or traditional portraiture, we want to see how artists recognize themselves in their work and portray themselves to people around them. Open to all mediums, this exhibition will feature works that explore the world of portraiture in both classic and nontraditional forms. All two and three dimensional work will be considered for this physical and virtual exhibition.
