“Unveiled”

Our Round Robin art competition

Our 2023-2024 Winner, Wendi Leigh

Unveiling who’s next!

One of Aspire Gallery’s founding goals has always been to draw attention to collectable, unattainable art just before it booms. We have promoted, pushed and guided hundreds of these artists since opening in 2014. Our commitment to this ethos continues this year with our 10 round, round robin art competition - “Unveiled”.

Unveiled is an ambitious initiative, spanning across 12 months, that is designed as a grand exploration, identification and ultimately celebration of artistic talent.

Each month, an open entry competition will be held under Unveiled.

Any medium, style, size or concept is allowed.

Our panel of judges will assess every piece submitted each round, seeking signs of innovation, technical skill, originality, and a distinct artistic voice. The winner of each month's competition not only secures a small token of recognition but also secures their position in the Grand Finale.

At the culmination of the 12-month journey, our 12 Finalists will be offered positions in the Grand Finale where a body of work will be showcased, enabling the public and judges to place their votes on whom should be nominated the Unveiled Artist of 2025-2026.
