How to entry
The Theme
The Theme for the Art for life Children's Art and Poetry Competition is 'Breathing Life'.
Matisse once said of his famous painting 'Dance', that it evoked "life and rhythm", and we have taken this as the central theme of our competition as life and rhythm embodies joy and energy, our wish for all children.
All participants are encouraged to produce original artwork and poetry inspired by our theme which captures their impressions of hope for children with breathing disorders.
'Breathing Life' will inspire children of all ages to join hands, be creative and help us send a message to all children with breathing disorders not to be afraid, our thoughts are with them.
