Hundred Heroines Open Call for Artists: Paid Opportunity

Hundred Heroines is looking for Gloucestershire based artists to create designs for our programming around ‘MALEVOLENCE’, our new exhibition opening February 15th-18th in Kings Walk.

This exhibit is to coincide with the Manchester Bee monument travelling to Gloucester. The exhibition explores different aspects of gender-based violence and continues our advocacy for its elimination.

Donna Ferrato has created a logo for our sticker, sculptures from Renate Bertlmann will be on display alongside work from multiple award-winning photo series from Etinosa Yvonne, Eugenia Maximova, and Kourtney Roy.

We’re looking for illustrated slogans around the topic of gender-based violence to represent the intersectional struggles of all women.

We’re looking for outside the box thinking, and a mixture of illustrative styles- all submissions are welcome! Your design will be used as an option for visitors to create their own badge or t-shirt as part of our campaign to stop gender-based violence.

HOW TO APPLY?

Please submit three images (low res) of your previous work as well as your proposed slogan, either in text (pdf) or an audio format (MP3/MP4) to hello@hundredheroines.org. We do not require a CV as this is an opportunity for emerging talents.
