Submissions remain open even after the competitions have ended and the winners have been announced because we believe that the artistic journey doesn’t stop with the end of a competition. Allowing ongoing submissions encourages continuous creativity and provides artists with a platform to showcase their work at any time. Just as voting remains open for continuous appreciation, keeping submissions open ensures that new and existing talent can always be discovered and celebrated.
This approach helps artists who may not have known in time about a particular competition that was very specific to their art category. These artists, who feel that they excel in that category, will still find a place where they can contribute and submit their talent. By keeping submissions open, we provide a relevant venue for their work to be seen and appreciated by an audience interested in that specific art form and topic, ensuring their talent finds the recognition it deserves.
