About the Open Call

WMG invites women and non-binary artists to submit works that feature encaustic materials or techniques, either wholly or in part. Artists must incorporate hot wax methods involving heating and fusing layers. The exhibition explores the luminosity, texture, translucency, and sculptural possibilities of wax. Both 2-D and 3-D works are eligible. Work must be original and produced without the primary use of AI image-generation tools.

Selected artists will have their work featured in the Pro/Fuse exhibition from July 11 to August 15, 2026.
