PASTA

Today I spied organic alphabet soup in the grocery store.  There is some humor to be found in the idea that someone invested in eating organically would also want a food so tortured & processed that it can spell out words.  And, I don’t believe anyone is REALLY teaching their children to read with soup.  So do we really need to communicate with food, literally, or am I just a huge hypocrite for constantly preach about the transformative & communicative power of food?  Okay, I’m a hypocrite, ha.  But, this next Call speaks to the power of text; however, I suspect they are not searching for alphabet pasta mosaics.  Check out this fantastic venue…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Woman Made Gallery (Chicago, IL) for texttexttext.  I’ve shown my own work at this venue, and I loved my experience at this gallery. Take a look…

Text is communication: “I’ll text you”.

Text is nowhere to be seen: …….

ELIGIBILITY: Open to artists of all genders.

MEDIA:  Text based work in all media will be considered.

DEADLINE: April 16, 2014

NOTIFICATION: May 14, 2014
