Theme- ‘Land’
Land is a formative element of life and experience. While both access to land, and conflict over land, are omnipresent in today’s world, land can also be restorative and a source of great joy. For this festival, we are seeking proposals that explore the idea of land from a variety of perspectives. We invite installations that address how we see the land, make the familiar unfamiliar, and imagine new realities and futures for land.
Install dates: August 27th-30th 2024
Teardown: Monday, September 2nd, 2024
