Now in its 30th year, INT’L All Media 2025 is a call to the creativity of artists worldwide. What began as part of the Americas 2000 series has grown into a vibrant showcase of diverse media, methods, and ideas. Presented by the Northwest Arts Center, the exhibition continues Minot State University’s long-standing commitment to fostering contemporary visual arts and honors a legacy rooted in innovation and community while inviting bold new perspectives. We welcome all artists to share their passion and add their voice to a conversation that spans borders and disciplines. Join us and let your vision become part of our story!
Our Juror this year is Melissa Monroe. Monroe is a self-taught multidisciplinary artist based in Portland, Oregon, known for her playful and expressive artwork. Since beginning her artistic journey in 2013, she has immersed herself in painting, textiles, and sculpture—creating work that explores vulnerability, transformation, and self-reflection. In 2021, she began creating handmade rugs, quickly becoming an innovator in the tufting technique by blending painterly abstraction with fiber-based work and sculpture. Her spiritual and performative practices also extend into mask-making and video installations. Melissa’s work has been exhibited widely in galleries and art fairs across the U.S., including exhibitions at Brassworks Gallery in Portland, Hey There Projects in Joshua Tree and Mortal Machine, New Orleans as well as showing at the Seattle Art Fair and Scope Art Fair in Miami.
Works in any medium, traditional or experimental, including photographs, qualify. All artworks must be original. Work must be ready to exhibit, completed within the last two years, and not previously exhibited in an INT’L exhibition. It is preferred that two-dimensional work be framed and protected by clear acrylic glazing, unless alternative display is integral to the work.
