Oileán

Sample-Studios TACTIC  Visual Arts Programme would like to invite artists to submit work for the upcoming exhibition
Oileán: The Island.

The exhibition will be curated by Sinéad Barrett, recipient of the 2019 curatorial residency award. Artists’ submissions may include sculpture, paint, print, film, photography, drawing, performance, ceramics, textiles and new media.

Oileán  will be a series of curated exhibitions to be held in various venues in Cork city and county in May and is part the Cork Harbour Festival 2020. This open call asks: can art provide a conversation about our future as an island nation in a time of uncertain political, economic and climatic changes? Oileán  aims to navigate, discuss and re-frame island life.
