BIDDEFORD, Maine - Jan. 15, 2021 - Complex Transition: Call for Essay Submissions
"Our lives today are in 'Complex Transition,' an inflection point in which social, economic, political and cultural forces converge and fundamentally reshape our lives. These are the moments in history when societies transition from one era into another, when traditional values and ways are transformed into a new way of life. This transition is 'complex' and simultaneously in 'transition.'"
Writer's Submission: In 500 words explain how social interactions and institutions have changed in the past decade and include the effects caused by other social and political forces.
Images: The e-pub will include Salazar images. There are100 small works in the artist painting series Complex Transition,2016. The series isn't wall art; it is a series of paintings propelled by the 'complex transition' happening in the social, economic and political events of the past decade. The art and text will complement each other.
