“Solidarity Is the Law of Social Life”

Inspired by the words of Errico Malatesta, this open call invites artists to reflect on solidarity as the foundation of collective existence.

In a time marked by division, conflict, and isolation, we seek to explore solidarity not as an abstract idea, but as a living force — a daily act, a political gesture, a shared responsibility.

🎨 Theme

Solidarity as social force, collective practice, and transformative action.

How does solidarity appear today?
Is it resistance? Care? Mutual aid? Community? Shared struggle? Quiet support?

We welcome works that explore:

Mutual aid and cooperation

Community networks

Social justice

Inclusion and collective movements

Care, vulnerability, and shared responsibility

🖼️ Accepted Media

Painting

Drawing / Illustration

Photography

Digital art

Collage

Visual poetry / Short text
