NATURE | Online International Group Exhibition 2026
No. 35 Gallery invites artists from around the world to submit their work for NATURE, an international online group exhibition exploring our relationship with the natural world.
Nature can be a place, a memory, a source of beauty, or something wild and uncontrollable. It can appear in the smallest details—a leaf, a flower, a bird, the surface of water—or in vast landscapes, changing seasons, forests, mountains and skies.
For this exhibition, we are keeping the theme intentionally broad.
We welcome works inspired by landscapes, plants, flowers, animals, birds, water, oceans, gardens, forests, weather, natural textures and forms, environmental change, rural environments, or the relationship between people and the natural world.
Your work does not need to depict nature literally. Abstract, conceptual and experimental interpretations are equally welcome.
We are interested in seeing how artists observe, remember, imagine and respond to the world around them.
