To commemorate the the 250th anniversary of J. M. W. Turner’s birth, the theme for this year’s competition is ‘Facing the Storm’, which can be interpreted as broadly as entrants like.
If inspiration is needed, Turner 250 is a year-long festival of special exhibitions and events. You can find out more at www.tate.org.uk/art/turner-250. However, the theme of stormy seascapes can be freely interpreted, metaphorically or literally, with or without reference to Turner’s life and art.
Be sure to read the full terms and conditions on the competition site before entering.
