Facepaint Challenge

Government Museum and Art Gallery, Chandigarh invites entries for a digital #FacePaintChallenge to stimulate conversations on the theme of "Biodiversity" for the World Environment Day, celebrated on 5th June, 2020.

Recent events, from Amphan super cyclone in Bay of Bengal to locust infestations across East Africa & Middle East – and now, a global disease pandemic – demonstrate the interdependence of humans and the webs of life, in which they exist.

We want to take this opportunity to spread concerns regarding the changing patterns of nature - human dynamic. For this, we are creating a unique online showcase of digital face paint filters on the theme put together in collaboration with Praveen Sinha (@imp8lite) and Samarth Gulati (@samarthishere).

Follow the instructions below to learn how to create your own digital face paint filter. Once you are satisfied with your creation, submit it by June 3rd, 2020. Selected entries will be shown in the online showcase.
