Food Matters - 2020 Concordia Symposium

We all share in the act of eating. The topic of food is increasingly complex. Food cultures
have deep roots, rich heritages, and increasing diversity, but also inherent controversies
associated with eating in a changing world. How do artists express food and food cultures?
Whether it’s the depiction of food in their work, or the visual representation of food; artists
make connections to food. Concordia College invites artists to submit works that exemplify the
theme of food and diversity in any interpretation, representational, abstract, or conceptual. Join
us at the table to explore Food for Good, the 2020 topic for the Faith, Reason, and World Affairs
symposium.

Collective Cure

Contemporary art is often birthed from our response to current events. In this time of social distancing, many of us have experienced grief for the life we once had as we struggle to find our new normal. We are all undergoing unique experiences; however, the common denominator is that we are all looking for ways to keep marching on.

Collective Cure will be a collection of works responding to the global pandemic, COVID-19. This exhibition will focus on how we as a collective whole will adapt to the world post quarantine, with an emphasis on coping with this crisis and moving forward.

This exhibition will be juried by a panel of artists from the staff of Historic New Harmony: Tabatha Chinn, Tonya Lance, and Daniel Mason.

Label Design Commission

Gospel Green and Deptford X began their partnership during the 2019 Deptford X festival with Gospel Green as the official drinks sponsor for the festival. The partnership was poised to continue for Deptford X 2020 and coincide with a Fringe artist bursary. However, with the outbreak of Covid-19 and subsequent postponement of the festival, and impact on all of our work, we needed to devise a new way to work in solidarity and continue to offer an opportunity for an artist. This opportunity is open to ANYONE and everyone, as long as you’re over the age of 18. Your design can be anything and submitted in any format you want, photography, painting, digital, collage etc.
