Living Labyrinths: Commission Opportunity

The exhibition Living Labyrinths will explore themes such as symbiosis, biodiversity, environmental sustainability, and the role of fungi in shaping our world. The selection panel is looking to commission two artworks that breaks down traditional boundaries between disciplines and engages with complex scientific concepts through a lens of critically engaged, contemporary art. During the process of creating new work, you will have the opportunity to visit RAMM’s stores, be inspired by the museum’s collections and work with its curators.

Eligibility: RAMM is seeking two artists based or working in the south west to produce regional-specific work. We are looking for artists working in any medium except photography and moving image, such as drawing and painting, sculpture or textile. Artists should have a track record of exhibiting nationally.

What you get: RAMM is offering £6,000 for the commission fee in addition to the production budget, limited to a maximum of £2,500. A fee of £300 will also be paid to each of three shortlisted artists to produce and present a proposal for the selection panel.

Deadline 28 April 2025
