DAMARISCOTTA — River Arts invites artists to submit work for a juried show of all abstract art.

Award-winning abstract artist Kayla Mohammadi is the juror. The deadline for submission is 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 2.

Artists are invited to submit works that are nonrepresentational, as well as abstract work inspired by landscape, figure or still life.

“Abstract” is open to all media, including painting, sculpture, fiber, photography and mixed media. Artists can enter two pieces with a size limit of 20 inches (in any direction), including frame. Or artists can enter one larger piece with a size limit of 48 inches, including frame.

Forms are available in the gallery or online at riverartsme.org. For members the entry fee is $15; for nonmembers it is $30.

Mohammadi has lectured at Rhode Island School of Design, University of Washington, and Dartmouth College. She is an assistant professor at Massachusetts College of Art in Boston, according to a news release from Heather Greene at the gallery.

Currently showing at Cove Street Arts in Portland, Mohammadi says of her work, “Although I draw from the landscape and still life as a way to explore ideas, my main interest is in abstract painting. Through drawing and collage, I work towards a simple expression of what I am seeing and feeling. Abstracting space through color and mark is what keeps me engaged with painting.”

“Abstract” will run from Tuesday, Sept. 5 through Saturday, Oct. 14 at the gallery at 36 Elm St.

The opening reception will be from 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 9. Regular hours are from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. For inquiries, visit the gallery’s website.
