🍂💀 Submissions are open for our upcoming autumn show💀🍂
We’re looking for work that captures the sumptuous, spooky beauty of autumn, from the vibrant, fiery hues of the changing leaves to the deep, melancholic tones of misty mornings and the haunting stillness of the gloaming. Whether your work evokes the cosy warmth of a pumpkin spice candle or the eerie atmosphere of lengthening shadows, we welcome your creative interpretations of the season.
We encourage both emerging and established artists to explore the theme, and, as always, submissions are open to all mediums and disciplines. Email us a photograph of the work you’d like to submit, and tell us a bit about yourself and your practice.
Submission deadline: 1st October Maximum works per artist: 3 Submission Fee: £10 per work Drop off dates: 3rd/4th/8th Oct Exhibition dates: 10th – 18th Oct
As always, we must be mindful of our environment in the Pentagon Centre and we cannot display any blatant profanity, graphic imagery, or nudity, so please dust all depictions of such copiously with cinnamon.
