Applications are invited from emerging/early career sculptors based in or connected to the South West of England.
Submissions are free and open to all. It is a selling exhibition. Please submit photographs of your work or details of proposed work including dimensions and weight if possible.
The theme this year is ‘connectivity’.
Connectivity may be interpreted in terms of materials, form, growth, and especially potential energy. It can apply to the body (internal to external); to place; to others; or, paradoxically, between materiality and the void. Connectivity implies affinity, openness, both being receptive to, and actively seeking, relatedness.
The gardens are unique. Potential applicants are encouraged to visit before responding to the call. Please email sculpture@stonelanegardens.com to arrange a guided tour.
Our 2022 selectors are ceramicist Sandy Brown, arts author and academic Penny Florence and Stone Lane Garden trustee Sandy Lipo.
