OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

Labspace Studio Presents…

The Lab Sessions 3.0: Chemical Nation
Saturday, April 12, 2008

The Lab Sessions are a series of themed interactive art parties hosted and curated by Labspace Studio.

Labspace Studio is looking for artists to present their work(s) for the third installment of
The Lab Sessions 3.0: Chemical Nation.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

“Chemical Nation” is a show about dependency and control. Submissions should explore the relationship between the human body and its dependency on chemicals and/or pharmaceuticals. Some examples: our dependency on pills to kill headaches, control pregnancy, ease anxiety, and induce sleep; our dependency on pesticides, plastics and synthetics.

In a Chemical Nation, are we in control of our bodies? What have we gained? What have we lost? What are you on?

SUBMISSION CATEGORIES:

-Painting, Collage, Photography, Drawing
-Video, New Media
-Writing, Spoken Word, Text
-Performance
-Dance
-Installation
-Music, Sound

Work will be displayed at Labspace Studio on the night of April 12, 2008. All artists are expected to financially support their projects. We will facilitate required technologies and assist in the installation process to the best of our ability. Keep in mind that The Lab Sessions is a party environment! Artwork may need to be tailored to suit the atmosphere.

To submit your work please email a brief description of your proposed piece(s) along with supporting/portfolio material of the described work or other work recently completed in a similar media to info@labspacestudio.com.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE:
February 23, 2008
