Deadline: June 7
Call for Indigenous Artists: The Polygon Gallery’s Response Program
Calling all Indigenous filmmakers and visual storytellers. The Response Program is an opportunity to create a short video work through exploratory workshops devised by Indigenous artists and mentors. Inspired by diverse approaches to film and media across contemporary Indigenous art, Response: Cover with Care encourages participants to consider how intentionally veiling subjects can act as a form of protection and resistance. What do we choose to share and what do we keep for ourselves? How does asserting sovereignty over access change the power given to our stories? The program is free to participate in. Participants will receive a $715 honorarium upon successful completion of the program.
