ABOUT THE EXHIBITION


“This is Me” is a vibrant and expressive group exhibition featuring the talented artists of the ArtSHINE community. More than just a showcase of visual art, this exhibition is a celebration of each artist’s unique “Quirk”—a term we proudly use at ArtSHINE to describe your artistic signature, your creative fingerprint, and the authentic voice that sets you apart.

Every piece in this show reflects the individuality, style, and passions of the artist behind it. From bold colours and intricate patterns to deeply personal themes and joyful storytelling, “This is Me” invites viewers to connect with the artists’ inner worlds. It is about embracing what makes you different, leaning into your strengths, and confidently sharing your creative identity.

At ArtSHINE, we champion creative expression and commercial success hand in hand. This exhibition is not only a platform for self-expression but also a reminder that your “Quirk” is your greatest asset—one that can inspire others and build meaningful connections.

Join us as we explore the many faces of creativity, where no two works are alike and every piece proudly declares: This is me.

Connecting Creatives with clients and bringing Artists to audiences.

Unapologetically commercial, ArtSHINE™ works globally with commercially minded artists, designers, and creative industries professionals; Creatives. (And the Impact Investors and communities who support them.)

As a social enterprise / for purpose business, ArtSHINE inspires and empowers commercially minded Creatives to build sustainable enterprises and generate viable incomes through our flexible, practical, and real-world approach to creative practice, commercialisation, art licensing, and entrepreneurial education. 

Even though the world is moving faster and competition among Creatives has increased, ArtSHINE believes there has never been a time of greater opportunity. And this is evident in the successes of our clients! Through ArtSHINE Creatives are better able to build sustainable business enterprises to support their artistic endeavours while generating income from their works.

An ArtSHINE program provides all the skills, experience, and support Creatives need to take their art & design practices to the next level.

ArtSHINE delivers coaching, education, and ongoing support using ‘action learning’ principles (learn by doing) and providing business templates, tools, and resources, along with our proprietary OPIC™ action planning systems.

ArtSHINE’s programs are generally twelve months in duration. And for successful graduates these programs culminate in representation at an international art licensing trade show; Surtex New York, or Licensing Expo China, or Brand Licensing Europe.

Here's what we do:

  • ArtSHINEaccelerator:- For Creatives ready to move to the next level and gain the skills to license and commercialise their works. ArtSHINE is constantly seeking to work with commercially minded Artists, Designers, and innovative Creative Industries Professionals.
  • ArtSHINEgallery:- For art enthusiasts seeking to discover new Artists and original works: ArtSHINE is helping Artists connect with, and expand their audiences.
  • ArtSHINElicensing:- For manufacturers and art directors seeking exciting new designs to license and wholesale: ArtSHINE is a non traditional licensing agency representing ArtSHINE Artists.
