2nd Annual Sfumato Art Competition
We’re thrilled to announce the results of the 2nd Annual Sfumato Art Competition, centered around the theme Metamorphosis. This year, we received an unprecedented number of submissions from artists across the globe—each offering a unique and powerful interpretation of transformation. Curating this exhibition was both an inspiring and challenging process due to the exceptional quality of work submitted. While not all pieces could be included, we are deeply grateful to every artist who took the time to share their vision with us.
The Virtual Exhibition Launches May 15, 2025
Hosted on the Sfumato website, the exhibition will present a compelling selection of works that reflect the many dimensions of metamorphosis—physical, emotional, spiritual, and beyond.
