OPEN CALL FOR CREATIVES – DIGITAL SUPERPOWER! LAB

We are looking for 5 young womxn/LGBTQ creatives/artists based in London to join other participants in Johannesburg, South Africa, and Bulawayo, Zimbabwe to collectively explore gender safety issues in their cities.

Participants will join a series of remote workshops and use a custom gesture-based data collection web platform developed by UK-based artist, Ling Tan to explore and collect data surrounding their own and their communities' experiences of gender safety in their own city.

Participants will be guided in ways to map, visualise and narrativise their individual and collective data and findings in their own artistic medium (e.g graphic design, data visualisation, performance, photography, storytelling, poetry, etc).

Participants will receive a participation fee of £133 and funds to cover data for online engagements. There will also be an opportunity to present their work surrounding the topic at this year's Fak'ugesi Festival in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Deadline: 23 August 2021
