Call for Submissions: Black Artists Submit Your Work for ‘Love is War’ Exhibit
Positive Results Center seeks Black Artists to submit work reflecting what violence looks like.

LOS ANGELES – Sept. 23, 2020 – PRLog — Love is Gentle, Love is Kind… Unless you are in an abusive
relationship. Then its about Power and Control. For them, Love is War. People fall in love all the time,
however, those relationships sometimes become violent and/or abusive. The one being victimized may still
love their abuser, but not the abuse.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness month and The Positive Results Center is calling Black Artists to
be part of a powerful healing exhibit entitled ‘Love is War’. This exhibit is designed to create awareness of
dating, domestic, intimate and interpersonal violence, sexual assault and gun violence. Your art will pull back
the covers, providing an up-close and personal view from the eyes of an artist, sharing the truth of those
victimized and/or their families.

Every 9 seconds in the US a woman is assaulted or beaten. Approximately 40% of Black women report
coercive contact of a sexual nature by age 18. Half of all homeless women and children in the U.S. are fleeing
from domestic violence. Domestic Violence is the 2nd CAUSE OF DEATH for Black women between the ages
of-8-34.

“Unfortunately, violence and abuse are the biggest threat to women, children and families. It begins in the
womb and is more widespread than any pandemic,” says Kandee Lewis, Executive Director of The Positive
Results Corporation. “Domestic violence affects everyone and does not discriminate based on financial status,
ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender or neighborhood.”

All art forms will be accepted, including illustration, watercolor, sculpture, poetry, and music. The submission
deadline is Friday, October 23, 2020. Only those selected will receive between $300 – $750 for their submission.
