OPEN CALL
Invitation for Artists
for the Art Project “FASMA”
Photographer Sofia Dalamagka, in collaboration with the international nonprofit organization for contemporary art and culture “KROMA,” along with “KROMA Magazine,” invite female and male artists to submit their work (photography, mixed media, video, installation, performance) for the art project “FASMA,” which will be held at the venue of ROMANTSO in the first months of 2024.
Artists are called upon to capture, through their works, the spectrum of gender and human relationships, challenge stereotypes, pose questions, share personal experiences related to gender and identity issues, and even denounce abusive behaviors.
The purpose of the art project “FASMA” is to express the questioning of heteronormativity, raise issues of queer visibility and inclusion through creative means, and communicate gender identity that may not necessarily align with one’s biological sex.
This call is open to the entire spectrum of creative individuals who feel that the time has come to initiate a discussion using artistic expression regarding gender identity and the silenced, abused, or distorted diversity. It is a call for universal coexistence, love, and acceptance without labels or prejudices.
“Revolution today is the preservation of tenderness.”
