FLUID is a juried exhibition of photography celebrating World Pride 2014, to be held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. World Pride is an international celebration incorporating activism, education, and the history and culture of global LGBTTIQQ2SA communities and includes a cultural festival, an international human rights conference, three marches and opening and closing ceremonies. World Pride is held once every 4 years and this will be the first time the celebration will be held in North America. Over 1.2 million people are expected to attend World Pride.
This exhibit seeks to feature the work of bi* identified artists working in any photo-based format (digital, collage, analog, alternative or historical processes). Bi* artists include those who claim, amongst other possibilities, the identities bisexual, queer, pan, asexual, omnisexual, two-spirit, fluid or other non-exclusively straight or non-exclusively gay identities.
We are seeking works that explore the ideas of “fluidity”, “instability”, “movement”, “shape”, “liquidity”, and that challenge the binaries of either “hetero” and “homo” only identities.
There is a non-refundable submission fee of $45.00 CAD to cover the costs of mounting the exhibition. We continue to fundraise in support of FLUID and hope to be able to offer bursaries to cover printing, framing and shipping. We encourage photographers working in digital media to print locally in Toronto and are happy to recommend Toronto-based professional print shops.
