this juried open call welcomes all mediums of visual and performance art, including but not limited to sculpture, fiber art, installation, video art, sound art, painting, photography, works on paper, and ceramics.
there’s poetry in art/making, and we often hold those poems for or within ourselves; either articulating it in a language only we know or unable to speak it because words often fall short.
for “i can’t get at the poem of this,” we invite you to share a little bit about the poetry that led to your piece or the story that drives the work. this is a call for “trying to find the words”—a familiar feeling or refrain of late. your words don’t have to be a poem or paragraphs-long, but just an attempt at sharing what you’re giving your attention to or are tending to.
simply: in your submission, tell us about what you were thinking about as you were making the work you’re sharing for this open call.
submissions are due july 20. this exhibition is juried by angela zonunpari.
