Call For Art Mandai 2027
Inscapes - Where the Unseen is Seen

We invite artists to submit their ideas for the upcoming Art Mandai 2027 on 26th January.

This time the theme is "Inscapes - Where the Unseen is Seen".

InScapes invites artists to look beneath the surface and explore the inner structures of nature and machines.
Get inspired by the physical, biological and man-made systems that make things grow, function, connect and transform. Turn the tangible world inside out and make the invisible hidden systems visible. 

Reveal and reimagine these concealed physical worlds.
