Beyond the Binaries
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 1967 Sexual Offences Act, Winter Pride UK in partnership with Emerald Life and The House of St Barnabas, is proud to launch its latest art competition:
Emerald Winter Pride Art Awards
Beyond the Binaries
Creative Brief
Open to all artists regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, Beyond the Binaries encourages artists to think of art as a tool for activism and the promotion of social equality. Beyond the Binaries invites art that looks past the black and white; that explores the spaces, the identities, the world that exists beyond and in-between these poles. The world and its inhabitants exist as a vast spectrum and Beyond the Binaries looks to celebrate this palette. Artists are invited to create work that stimulates dialogue about the representation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex and straight identities.
Entries from the following artistic disciplines are invited to apply to the Emerald Winter Pride Art Awards:
- Drawing
- Painting
- Sculpture
- Installation
- Photography
- Video Art
- Performance Art
Selection Process
Stage 1 – The selection panel will choose up to 30 Finalists from the images submitted online for exhibition at The House of St Barnabas.
Stage 2 – The selection panel will choose an overall winner and runners up at the Awards Ceremony at The House of St Barnabas.
