Materiality in Sculpture: A Dialogue Between Substance and Form

This exhibition explores the interplay of materials in the realm of sculpture, showcasing works that challenge, celebrate, and redefine our understanding of material substance.

To connect your own work to this theme, consider how your choice of medium and subject matter can simultaneously reflect the physical and conceptual aspects.

Formats include freestanding, wall hung, interactive, installation & video. Open interpretations of the exhibit theme are welcomed.
