Want to contribute visually to an ongoing exploration of the body? Submissions will be featured in an online exhibition and IRL display.
Gold Host (www.goldhost.world / www.instagram.com/gold.host) is looking for artistic contributions in an ongoing exploration of the body - whether or not these are related to the current pandemic. Contributions can take on any kind of visual form and all mediums welcome!
As we began 2020, Gold Host shared its plans to extend its work through the realm of the BODY. Unbeknown to us, the body has taken centre stage in global affairs, in unprecedented ways.
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed our shared bodily vulnerabilities, rendered visible the contours of existing health inequalities and pointed to new forms of governing the body
politic.
We will have all experienced lockdown in different ways: our bodies will have felt closer to some and farther from others. While stretched digital communities may have displaced our
bodies, our desires to be physically close to other humans have simultaneously re-centred the flesh of our bodies.
Gold Host is seeking to continue its exploration of the BODY and invites artistic contributions that engage with the BODY – whether or not these are related to the lockdown/pandemic/COVID-19.
Contributions can take any kind of visual form!
We will be piecing these contributions together to form an online exhibition in June and a real-life exhibition ‘IN THE FLESH’ after lockdown restrictions ease.
IN THE FLESH will provide an opportunity to exhibit and sell your work on the opening night.
Please consider contributing – however big or small and regardless of your existing artistic profile. We really want to share your work!
Update: deadline for submissions is 8th June 2020
