The Juried exhibition
The submission to this year's Juried exhibition was international, and an incredible 605 entries were received with a theme that has occupied and gathered people all over the globe: how have we coped with the corona pandemic? How can the experience and feelings be interpreted in pictures? We have received very personal stories, and stories that are more universal.
