While terrain denotes the most stable physical aspect of Earth, it can also be ephemeral, philosophical, even imaginary, a field of knowledge and creativity as much as texture and geography.

Artists were asked to Take the word ‘terrain’ as a starting place, to interpret, explore, and stretch the concept, to find visual poetry and play with its meanings. Nearly 200 artists from across the country submitted about three hundred fifty works of art. Forty-one pieces by thirty-nine artists were selected for inclusion into the show.

Juror John Colan commented that, “beyond the literal, there are infinite interpretations for the idea of terrain - as an analogy, or metaphor, perhaps- so many avenues to explore artistically, in any medium”. Colan has asked Shana Dumont Garr, gallery director at the Kingston Gallery and former assistant director at Montserrat College of Art, to choose the awardees from the juried work. Awards will be presented at the reception on November 21.
