One of the most anticipated events of the 2026 Brisbane MAANZ Symposium will be the return of our International Exhibition and the 30:30 Vision Exhibition. The program includes a vibrant opening celebration and inspiring award presentations, bringing the mosaic community together to celebrate creativity at its finest.
​
This year, both exhibitions are united under the Symposium theme “Fragments and Flow”, challenging artists to respond to this idea in their own unique way. The exhibitions will run concurrently at Woolloongabba Art Gallery from 7–17 October, creating a cohesive showcase of talent and imagination.
​
The International Exhibition
​
MAANZ’s premier showcase of mosaic art, the International Exhibition sets the stage for outstanding works of conceptual depth and technical mastery. Open exclusively to MAANZ members, this juried exhibition invites both emerging and established artists to submit their best. An independent panel of esteemed jurors will select works, which will be anonymous, through a rigorous online process that will then be exhibited and judged in person for awards. This is guaranteed to be an inspiring exhibition of contemporary mosaic art.
​
The 30:30 Vision Exhibition
​
Big ideas in small spaces—every work in this exhibition measures 30 × 30 cm and is presented unframed. Open to all mosaicists (beginners, enthusiasts, and professionals alike), this exhibition celebrates inclusivity and diversity of practice. As an open exhibition, all entries are accepted provided they meet the criteria, giving every artist the opportunity to exhibit and be part of the mosaic conversation.
​
Participation and Access
​
Entering a mosaic into these exhibitions is separate from Symposium registration and is not included in the Symposium fee. The exhibition openings and award presentations are included in the Symposium package for delegates, while guest tickets can be purchased for additional visitors or for exhibiting artists who are not registered delegates.
​
Come and be part of this exciting dual showcase—whether you’re creating, exhibiting, or simply admiring, these exhibitions promise to be a dazzling celebration of mosaic artistry where fragments truly find their flow.
