What: Celebrating the imposter syndrome living in each of us by poking a little fun at the idea that mastery is necessary for creative viability and inviting artists to courageously switch disciplines with another artist.
Co-curators Marissa Rae Niederhauser (Dance, video, performance art) and Kennedy Verrett (Music) each select 3 artists working in various disciplines. The artists’ names will go in one hat and their disciplines in another. In a publicly shared video drawing artists will be randomly assigned a medium outside of their usual practice to share for public exhibition. Artists are than given two weeks to gather supplies and prepare to show the result of their experimentations.
This is the third event of a quarterly showcase!
Submissions are ongoing on a rolling basis, a diversity of disciplines and demographic identities is encouraged.
