Invisibility: Existing on the Periphery | Virtual Exhibition

Invisibility: Existing on the Periphery | Virtual Exhibition Dates: July 1–31, 2024
The theme, “Invisibility: Existing on the Periphery”, seeks to explore the experience of invisibility, a condition often imposed by societal norms and at times, embraced as a form of self-preservation. This call for art aims to explore the subject of invisibility as a state of being and as a social condition that affects various groups and individuals who are systematically overlooked – the homeless, migrants, the disabled, the elderly, certain racial and worker groups. ALL accepted works with statements will be viewable online.

Girlfriends

Girlfriends | Exhibition Dates: May 25–June 22, 2024
WMG is seeking art that explores the “girlfriend” theme in whatever manner you choose.

Down There

Approximately half of Earth's population has vulvar anatomy. The vulva includes, but is not limited to, the vaginal opening, labia majora, labia minora, urethral opening, mon pubis, and external clitoris. Historically relegated as shameful, dirty, or impure across cultures, bodies with vulvas and/or vaginas have been both misunderstood and insufficiently studied by scientists and doctors for centuries. Down There seeks to lift back imposed veils of stigma and mystery, bringing to the forefront conversations around vulvar anatomy, vocabulary, diversity, emotionality, etc. Visual arts media as well as writing, poetry, performance, and video submissions will all be considered.
