Call for Participation | Altered Terrain

We are excited to announce an open call for artists to participate in Altered Terrain, an exhibition that will showcase 10 early career artists who are critically engaging with emerging digital technologies in Ireland today. By presenting a series of site-specific installations and interventions, our aim is to provide fresh insights into the spaces we encounter and to explore the complex relationships between physical and digital environments.

We encourage works that engage with any of the following themes:

-The relationship between technology and nature

-The intersection of digital and physical space

-The impact of human activity on the environment

-The evolution of traditional cultural practices in a digital age

If you’re interested in participating, please provide the following information in your application. (Linked google form provided above)

-An artist statement

-Upload a PDF with 1-2 examples of previous work and relevant supporting links/imagery for this proposal

-A description of your intended artwork, which can be either an existing or proposed piece (must be complete by June 1st, 2023) (max. 500 words)

We accept the following file types for AR works:

-3D Object (.gltf, .glb, .zip; max size 50MB)

-Image (.jpg, .png, .gif; max size 15MB)

-Video (.mp4; max size 25MB)

The exhibition will feature AR artworks that explore the concept of Altered Terrain. In July 2023, viewers will be able to observe and interact with these works at various locations across Ireland, and an online guidebook will be created to map all 10 installations.

We invite proposals that are specific to a particular location, whether natural, rural, or urban. We welcome submissions from artists working in all forms of digital media, including video, 3D models, animation, and sound.

We look forward to receiving your proposals. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with any questions you may have: [email protected]
