Open Artist Call – Metamorphosis: connection, resilience and inspiration

A series of London-based in-person encounters looking at ways of overcoming the challenges of our times. We are creating spaces and offering tools for participants to ignite and harness a sense of inspiration, connection and resilience through practice.

Six Thematic Encounters – Creative Labs and Performance Sharings

The six themes reflect critical subjects of our times to be approached through different artistic and philosophic lenses. We are interested in how a diversity of approaches can converse and create connections towards circumstances that are important to our social realities in the current times.

The Creative Labs will take place in Southwark and Hackney, London on the last weekend of the month from March till October (skipping June and August). We are inviting artists, practitioners and scholars from diverse fields and backgrounds to share their experiences around the following six central themes:

  • Strangeness, 24-27 March
  • Landing, 28 April -1 May
  • Rewilding, 26-28 May
  • Aqua Carriers, 28-30 July
  • Difference, 22-24 September
  • Metamorphoses, 27-29 October
