SUBMISSIONS OPEN!

SUBMISSIONS OPEN!
This year‘s theme is OBSESSION. 

Give freedom to your obsession/fanatism and take this opportunity to show your art in the next Mosaïek Magazine. 

Together, we will create an issue that bundles your stories, sculptures, paintings, poems, photos, and more, to show them what it's like to look at the world through your eyes. (Because what’s more moving than our biggest obsession).
We invite you to embody anything and everything you associate with it in your art and get the chance for your piece to feature in the magazine!

Obsession makes us human. Maybe because we seek some form of identification? It can drive creation and passion or consume us dreadfully. From yoghurt bowls to football clubs, from body issues to love interests, from objects to pressing thoughts; they shape us daily. Do fixations anchor us in flux, in ever-changing desires and realities? Or do they make us forget the bigger picture, trapping us in loops that blind us to what lies beyond?

 

What‘s your angle on obsession?
What‘s your fixation?
Do we need obsessions?
Are they something we’re proud of or ashamed of?
Where do they come from?
