i see the divine in you.
the next issue of whet will be released in november 2024 and is…
the nature issue.
the nature issue. examines the natural world around and within us. artists are asked to explore their own distinct concept of what “nature” means, refusing to limit themselves to any standard definitions and confines. what does nature provide for us? what do we provide for nature? how are we as individuals impacted by nature, and in what ways does it impact our art and the environment(s) that we inhabit? beyond a description for physical phenomena and outdoor living things, what words, images, insight, and modes of expression can we give to describe our relationship with nature?
deadline for submissions:
october 3, 2024
please understand that whet is a sacred space for women of color. whet features artwork by those that are typically denied a voice in the art landscape and beyond—our black, brown, indigenous, women of color sisters.
artists of all mediums, genres, scopes and skills are always most welcome! whet is not limited in art form and doesn’t discourage any type of artist from submitting.
DA DEETS: please fill out the form to the right, and be sure to upload your artwork by clicking the “UPLOAD” button on the final field of the submission form. submissions are typically responded to within 3 to 5 business days. submissions without accompanying submission forms completed will not be accepted.
DA NOTES: for visual arts or illustration submissions, please make sure that your resolution is at least 300 DPI. for literary arts or creative writing submissions, you may want to have more than one piece in mind in the event that your steez is spot on but whet can only allocate a certain amount of space to your section.
EXTRA-SUPER-DUPER-MUY-IMPORTANTE-MAYJAH-READ-THIS NOTE:
communication is important! whet values your time and just asks that those submitting are mutually respectful. to that end:
it is vital that you maintain contact with whet throughout the submission process and especially once the zine is being formatted and edited. if whet reaches out to you regarding a question about your submission or formatting or preferences, please respond within three (3) business days; if you are unresponsive after three (3) attempts to reach you within a period of two weeks, your submission will be automatically removed.
finally, be aware that whet cannot offer paid commissions at this time. whet is a totally volunteer-run, one-woman powerhouse for the time being but you will absolutely receive a copy of the issue with your contribution and an invite to the release event for those of you who are local!
