In submitting a proposal, you understand that:


1) FEED is a juried show and that not all proposals will be selected.


2) FEED is a collaborative, process-oriented project which challenges the boundaries of the individual and proprietary artistic innovation. Artists may be invited to adapt their works in order to accommodate this deliberately invasive process of networking the pieces together. Artists may, of course, refuse, but this may make it impossible for their work to be shown within the FEED network.
 

Thank you for Submitting to FEED.

Even the most reliable e-communications can fail.


If you do not receive a confirmation of your submission within 7 days, please let us know.
