Sound & Vision, 2022
Mark Watkins, Staffordshire, UK
/DRI:M/SPACE is hosting an Open Call for collage art for the second issue of the magazine which will be available as a PRINT publication and DIGIMAG. Collagists are challenged to enter works that fit the brief:
Sound & Vision
From the Co-Curator, Mark Watkins:
The ‘cut up’ writing technique made famous by author William S. Burroughs inspired the likes of David Bowie, Kurt Cobain and Radiohead’s Thom Yorke - cutting out sentences, phrases and words and rearranging them to create lyrics for poetry and songs. Lyrical collage!
For this callout:
Choose a favourite song. Select one line from the lyrics and let that be the inspiration for a collage.
Include the chosen lyric with your submission.
So dust off your vinyl or plug in the iPod but be sure to turn up the volume!
The Deets
All open call entries require a non-refundable submission fee >
$5 for 1 entry, $10 for 2+ entries.
