Visual Art Applications - Magyk
------
We want to know where you find magic in your life and how you explore it in your art.
Magic means different things to different people—from the beauty in the everyday and the world around us to fantasy, illusion, and the extraordinary—magic is an interaction with the unknown. Whether it’s through culture, folklore, rituals, community, love, or nature, magic, like art, is subjective. So we invite you to reflect on what it means to you and how it comes alive in your creative practice.
We are seeking works that capture the essence of magic in all its forms. Who does magic belong to? Where is it found? How does it shape your process? Whether your piece conjures fantastical worlds, otherworldly forms, a sense of wonder, or moments of transformation—we want to see where you find the magic in your artwork.

We are also seeking applications from groups/collectives/organisations to curate their own exhibition - under the theme of ‘Magyk’ - which will take over some of the Rose Theatre foyers. The registration fee for this group exhibition is £300, if your application is successful.
