About the Open Call

Body Sovereignty is an exhibition about who owns our body, its expression and its sexuality. We are interested in art that refuses to be tamed—work that finds the erotic in the accidental, the absurd, the domestic, and the discarded. We welcome work that claims ownership over desire, sexuality, and gender, transforms everyday materials, or explores queer identity and bodily survival through a fantastical or absurdist lens. All media welcome, including sculpture, assemblage, ceramics, collage, painting, drawing, fiber arts, printmaking, papermaking, video, and installation.
