Are you a digital artist or animator who wants to use your work to advocate for environmental change? Hosted by the Pinata Foundation, the 3rd International Digital Art Biennial “THE ONE” is currently accepting free submissions from professional creators and art students globally.
The title “THE ONE” refers to Planet Earth—the only known place in the universe that harbors life. This biennial aims to showcase cutting-edge digital art that addresses human-driven ecological destruction, prompts reflection on the progress of civilization, and sparks a critical global dialogue about our shared responsibility to protect the planet.
