Exhibition Call Out: Unfurl

Drawing inspiration from the natural world, Unfurl takes its cue from the emergence of new growth: leaves unfurling, buds opening, roots extending, and seeds awakening to possibility. 

This inaugural exhibition will celebrate the opening of Studio Integrifolia and the reactivation of SMAC Gallery, and artists are invited to submit small-scale works to be exhibited that explore themes of growth, transformation, renewal and potential.

Open to small works in all 2D and 3D media, we are seeking work that responds to this theme, whether through direct engagement with plant life and ecology, or through broader explorations of personal, creative and collective transformation.

​
