Cat and Mouse…

Is a playful way to illustrate a certain type of power struggle. This game of constant pursuit, capture, and escape is a trope of fables, fiction, movies, and cartoons. Will one win over the other, or are the combatants locked in a never-ending game where the upper hand is gained, but eventually lost?  The Decatur Arts Alliance invites artists working in all media to submit work that explores the meaning of the game of “Cat & Mouse” in all its aspects: historical, political, and moral.
