Echos: The Art of Preservation

What does it mean to preserve a rapidly changing world? How can we safeguard aspects of our collective and individual identities?

Creative Youth invites artists from all visual art disciplines to submit their work for an upcoming exhibition centred on the theme of ‘Preservation’. We ask artists to think about and respond to the concept of preservation through the lenses of language, culture, environment, history and heritage – what are we, or rather, what should we be protecting and preserving in our world today? How can art be a vessel for keeping important moments of humanity alive?

Alternative Night of Experimental Film

After three successful screening events attended by wonderful creators, the Alternative Night of Experimental Film is back - once again inviting submissions of short experimental films and moving image works that will compose the programme for an informal screening in an alternative music venue in Kingston upon Thames, London. 

We are particularly interested in works by emerging filmmakers and artists based in London; the aim of the event is to create a platform for conversation and networking for those who are exploring the alternative creative paths through experimental cinema.
