Format Picks is our ongoing contest series which asks artists to submit work around a variety of themes. So far, we’ve asked people to explore topics such as viaje, citiesy autorretrato.
This month, we’re doing things a little differently. To celebrate the launch of our new creative project Format Classics, we’re asking you to tell us about an individual from history who inspires you to create.
Format Classics is a creative interpretation of the personal websites a few famous historical figures might have made if they had access to the internet. Classics re-contextualizes icons from history to foster the idea that sharing work is central to the creative process. Whether work is new or old, it’s imperative that creators share in order to learn, grow, inspire—and create more.
Cómo participar
Who or what influences your creative work? Is it a painter, a sculptor, a musician, a writer, a filmmaker? To enter the contest, simply download one of our editable images here, and add the person who inspires you—this can be anyone you want. This can be done any way you like, through text, or visuals too if you’re feeling creative.
Entries can be shared on Instagram, as a post or a story, or on Twitter. Be sure to tag us @useformat and use the hashtag #FormatClassics so we’ll be able to see your entry. We’ll be judging and selecting winners based on the creativity of your post. Feel free to include a written caption that provides more background on why you chose the person you did.
