“Unmarket”: Work that is too big, too small, too much, too little: what would someone do with it? Why would someone make it? Art for the sake of creation, experimentation, and failure.
The Space Blanket Society is seeking “Unmarketable” work for an upcoming exhibition at the Fifty Fifty Arts Collective.
The Space Blanket Society started in 2020, facilitating various market events for youth artists at the start of the C19 pandemic. Although this was a way to provide opportunities for youth artists to sell their work, this put an unwarranted emphasis on the profitability of artwork. The Space Blanket Society is for and by emerging youth artists who do not need to be stunted by the pressure to create work for the sole purpose of its marketability. In response to the various markets we’ve done over the last 2 years, we introduce the “Unmarket”.
We encourage submission of all types of media and scales.
To submit, please follow this link to the Google Form application.
Answer each required question carefully.
You can submit multiple works, just use a new form for each submission.
This exhibition is being curated by youth artist Bjorn Cross, Chair of the SBS board.
