Hope you are doing well ! and Greetings from The Fuschia Tree ! We are an Art Gallery based in Hong Kong and New Delhi . The Fuschia Tree has about 500 artists from 24 countries registered on its website.
We’ve established an honest platform for artists to show their works and are proud to announce the launch of our new art initiative called "The Fuschia Futures". This project aims to give an opportunity to emerging artists who have not showcased their works earlier and are in search of fantastic exposure. The Fuschia Futures is therefore an ideal place for young, emerging, revolutionary artists working across various mediums such as sculpture, painting, video, installation art, and photography. We therefore invite all artists out there to send us their work and our panel of curators shall select the best amongst the best to be a part of The Fuschia Futures.
