Open Submission
Exhibition 2025
Curated by The Project Twins
“Sign, Symbol, Word”
Submissions deadline: Sunday 13 July | 5pm
From stone carvings to digital code, people have always used symbols to make sense of the world. This open call invites artists to play with, disrupt, or reimagine the signs and symbols that shape our experience. How do meaning, form, and context shift when language becomes image, or image speaks like language?
We are now accepting 2D & 3D works for selection via the link on this page or in person on Sunday 13th July in Oxmantown Model NS (R42 T271).
Exhibition | 1 - 8 August 2025
We are very pleased to announce that one of the selected artists will be awarded a solo exhibition in 2026.
THE CURATORS
THE PROJECT TWINS
The Project Twins are James and Michael Fitzgerald, an Irish based collaborative art duo. They work across a broad range of disciplines including painting, printmaking, design, illustration and three-dimensional work. Their use of minimal forms and graphic shapes are rooted in the visual language of signs,
symbols and pictograms. They are interested in the use of this as a universal language and its ability to convey ideas, information and narratives. Alongside their fine art practice, they regularly produce editorial illustrations. Their work has appeared in The Guardian, The New York Times, TIME and The Economist amongst others.
