CONNECTION

Call for Artists 

CONNECTION EXHIBITION

 

The Creative Recycling Gallery invites artists based in Manchester or in the North West to submit artwork for the CONNECTION Exhibition in May 2020 during the Chortlon Art Festival.

We are looking for art that explores the concept of Connection.
What is connection? 

How does your art make you feel connected?

Does your art help you to connect with yourself, with your community?

In a society that pushes us to feel more and more like individuals on their solo mission, disconnected from our neighbours and sometimes suspicious of diversity, we feel the need to talk about connection, the importance of community, of exploring connection to yourself and others
