The unique code we will provide you concerns your participation. This code helps us find your artwork among thousands of other works!

On May 18, when all the artworks will be up on the website, you will be able to quickly and easily locate your own artwork, by inputting your unique code in the search field.

[9] What happens if I lose the unique code for my artwork?

Once you have completed the participation form, and after you have uploaded your artwork, the unique code will appear on your screen. I would be best if you wrote down the code, so as not to lose it.
