About the exhibition open call:
UAAD is pleased to announce our Virtual Exhibition and Curatorial Project with New Art City. Ties That Cannot Be Unbound is calling for artists who explore themes such as but not limited to kinship, multispecies, interconnectedness and intersectionality, the artistic and cultural values of nature, queerness, environmental and social justice, mythologies, ancestral knowledge and memory, and indigeneity.
Ties That Cannot Be Unbound questions and reconstructs our relations to material objects and all life forms on Earth. The curatorial project will look at concepts, approaches, and praxes to reconcile and repair our relationship with the othered, exploited, abused, commercialized, fetishized, and colonized. All media and styles are welcome, including born-digital artifacts alongside digitized works of traditional media.
The virtual exhibition will create spaces for critical discourse, engage a multigenerational and international group of artists, and bring the viewers a truly immersive, sensorial experience curated with love, care, and respect for the artists as well as the land. Selected artists can also be featured in UAAD’s online magazine as well as in press releases on major news sites.
About the exhibition organizer and gallery partner:
Underground Art And Design was founded in October 2022 as an international media platform focused on empowering talented, change-provoking, and forward-thinking artists and designers through accessible information, resources, and a platform to show themselves. UAAD envisions a community of support, across disciplines and time zones, to bring inspiration, innovation, and provocation to the world we live in.
Our gallery partner is New Art City, an online multiplayer exhibition space for digital art and performance.
