Call for artists – Electric Art

21 May 2015

Are you, or do you know, an artist who can help realise a visual art work?

Manchester Science Festival 2015, in Partnership with Electricity North West, and the University of Salford, Manchester.

This £5,000 commission seeks to help realise a visual art work, developed through the theme of ‘electricity’ for exhibition during the Manchester Science Festival (October 22 - November 1, 2015). The final work will create public debate around the role of electricity in our lives and may engage. We are keen to hear from artists working across genres from digital and mixed media to craft and performance. Thematic areas may include attention to the future of electricity, forms of sculptural lighting, smart grid design, laser and alternative fuel sources.

The deadline for proposals is Monday, 8 June 2015 (12pm).
