This annual highlight challenges artists to reimagine classic subjects and techniques through a contemporary lens, blending time-honoured practices with modern creativity.
Experience works that honour the past while embracing the present in this dynamic celebration of artistic evolution. Whether through innovative composition, subject matter or technique, each piece reflects a thoughtful dialogue between tradition and today.
