As part of the performative installation Don’t thank for the food, Antonia Atarah and working group would love to invite young BIPOC visual artists to present their work in Caisa Gallery, Helsinki in the frame of Moving in November.
The installation is a utopic living room made by and for BIPOC communities. A space of home, dreams, joy, nurture and rest.
Your work will enter in dialogue with this setting, expanding its meanings.
✨ What you’ll get:
- Your work will be part of the installation 7.-8.11.2025.
- Guidance and support from the working group and the festival and cultural center with displaying your work.
- A chance to connect with other artists and audiences in a space that celebrates BIPOC creativity.
🎨 Who can apply:
- BIPOC artists between 18–30 years old.
- Any medium is welcome (painting, photography, sculpture, video, textile, mixed media and performative works that can be showcased in gallery context is also welcomed!)
- You don’t need previous exhibition experience – just curiosity and a wish to share your work.
💌 How to apply:
Form a document that includes:
- A short introduction of yourself and your artistic work.
- A few lines on why you’d like to be part of this installation.
- Please tell us what your needs are in terms of displaying the work. What kind of assistance would you like us to provide?
- Some images or links to your works/the work you’d like to present.
- Please write your application in English, Finnish, or Swedish.
The decisions will be made by Antonia Atarah in dialogue with Moving in November and Caisa (in relation to technical realisation) by mid-October.
Feel free to ask any questions you may have by email.
We can’t wait to see your visions❤️
