OPEN CALL. ARTIST SUBMISSION
THE IDEA
THE FAMILIAR, SEEN DIFFERENTLY.
For our first open exhibition, MŌR invites artists and makers to submit one work that looks again at something we think we know.
A landscape.
A vessel.
A figure.
An object.
A material.
A place.
OTHER is interested in the point at which the familiar becomes something else.
A traditional material used unexpectedly. An ordinary object given new significance. A landscape reduced, abstracted or reimagined. A familiar form shifted through scale, process, surface or perspective.
We are looking for work that is contemporary, considered and materially strong — but importantly, work made to live with.
Painting, drawing, print, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, wood, glass, photography and mixed media are all welcome.
There is no requirement to make new work specifically for the exhibition.

SUBMISSIONS
Submissions are open to artists, makers and practitioners working across disciplines.
We welcome painting, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, wood, glass, photography, print, drawing, mixed media and work that sits somewhere between them.
You do not need to have exhibited with MŌR before.
SELECTION
This is a curated open exhibition.
Submitting work does not guarantee inclusion. Selection will be made by MŌR with consideration given both to the individual work and to the exhibition as a whole.
We are interested in creating a conversation between works rather than filling a room.
All applicants will hear from us by 28 February 2027.
Selected work must be available for the duration of the exhibition and delivered to MŌR by 21 March 2027.
Further exhibition, delivery and sales information will be provided to selected artists.
