CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

Volume 05 of Forgotten Lands is examining the colonial origins that are still at work within and around the Caribbean today. We’re also considering the context of these matrixed layers of identity and the reality of our own displacement in the current post-globalized world.

Submissions are now being accepted for photography, video, installation, painting, writing, and any relevant work centered around the effects, embodiment, or practices of neocolonialism.

How might today’s coloniality of power present itself in your region and how do you address this in your practice? 


Submission Deadline

February 1st, 2023

  • High-resolution print-ready files are not needed at this time and will be requested at a later date if your work is selected to be printed.

  • Our publication is specifically interested in publishing work from artists who currently reside in the Caribbean or part of the regions’ diaspora.


FAQ:

  • Can I submit more than one project? Yes! However we will only choose 1 project per artist. We want to see your strongest body of work.

  • Can I submit a collaborative project? Yes, you can submit a project that has been created by yourself and other artists. Please submit under the name that you would like to appear in print if you are selected.

  • Does the work have to be new and exclusive to Forgotten Lands? Not at all! Work submitted is allowed to have been exhibited elsewhere (non-exclusive to Forgotten Lands), ideally all work was completed within the last 2-3 years.
