Artist and Designer Callout

As part of The Glorious Undead’s anticipated 2009 art festival, Diorama Drama invites you to create the microcosm of your dreams!

In a low-fi salute to craft revivals, participants are asked to create a snapshot of a new world. 

Hosted at Somedays Gallery*, the available wall-space space will be divided into partitioned areas offering artists and designers a realm to create a new space. Works can be serious or satirical, elevating or depressing. The project may investigate unrequited futures or unmade pasts. It’s up to you. Sound and video work is welcomed too and there will be opportunities for performance artists to show at the opening. You even wish to create a context for existing works. All these aspects can be negotiated with the curator.

But oh, the possibilities…

The Diorama Drama exhibition will run for the whole month of February with the opening event on February 18th.

Due to the site-specific nature of the works, we are seeking commitment from interested artists and designers in the coming week and will be holding a discussion next Thursday afternoon (18/12/08) at 5.30pm at Lounge Bar on Goulburn st. If you are unable to attend but would like further information please let us know on bronandmarcel@gmail.com or dioramadrama@gmail.com . Alternatively, you can phone Bronwyn on 0416 858 606 or Elliott on 0424 426 592.

*Somedays Gallery is a space which supports emerging local artists. The gallery is a relaxed space which shares its home with the Somedays Store, a Scandinavian fashion house. The large loft style space sports white gallery walls with plenty of natural light. The perfect location for Diorama Drama.
