Artivism: ‘Like herrings in the ocean. And not in a barrel …’

I need your help! I have submitted a work to ‘de Nationale Expo’. My work has a nature conservation message.

*Like herrings in the ocean. And not in a barrel… Collage quilt 108x106cm – Geertrui Cazaux*

De Nationale Expo is a national contest in Belgium for artworks. Theme in 2024 is Belgian artist/painter James Ensor. My quilt has a clear link with Oostende and James Ensor. See the description!

Can you please vote for my work? That would really mean a lot to me. 🙂 The more votes, the more likely this quilt will be included in the exhibition at the Royal Library of Brussels this Summer.
70 works (from 2500) will be selected, It would be great if a quilt with a nature conservation message is included!

Every vote really counts!
