Dear Artist,

As part of the international exhibition Doll’Arte 2026, we invite you to participate in the author’s doll competition on the theme:
“And the Sea as Life…”

Everyone is welcome to participate, not only artists directly taking part in the exhibition. The entries will be evaluated by an expert jury in the following categories:

❗️ Absolute Triumph (Grand Prix by jury)
❗️ Theme Interpretation
❗️ Filigree Execution
❗️ Creative Breakthrough
❗️ Ode to Costume
❗️ Details Matter
❗️ Emotional Accent
❗️ Teddy and Friends
❗️ Miniature

Winners in all categories will receive commemorative prizes. All participants will receive certificates of participation.

Entries must be no taller than 50 cm, match the theme, and can be made in any technique, but not from workshops.

The competition will be held offline. Artists can deliver their works personally or by mail, provided the shipping cost is covered and clear author instructions (photo and audio materials) for mounting and installation are included.

To apply, participants must complete a form on our website and provide high-quality photographs of their work before the 1st of March.

Application deadline: March 1, 2026. For mailed submissions, participants should consider delivery times.
