Within The Limitations
Ashford Visual Artists – Online (2023-2024)
Curated an artist’s open call. I wanted to offer an open call that was free to enter and exhibit and utilise the hundreds of empty CD cases that remained following an installation by a colleague, Lorrain Mailer. The artist’s open call asked artists to submit entries that would fit within the limitations of a CD case, 12x12x0.5cm.
The open call increased the Ashford Visual Artists Instagram following by over 100%, introduced free workshops held by artists in Ashford and culminated in an exhibition in March 2024.
