«In these difficult times, we want to support Russian and international sound artists and use this time of isolation to the benefit of art. Now that most of us are confined to our respective homes, we have the opportunity to focus and reflect on our situation, and to channel our energy in a creative direction. As part of the project, we want to document the processes that take place in the art world under stay-at-home orders/quarantines, to make visible the work that goes on in self-organized home “workshops” around the world.
For this open-call we’re accepting works of sound art, conceptual ideas expressed in sound, reflecting on the transformations that take place in the world during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The result will be a double CD, the first part of which will contain works from the competition’s shortlist and the second — the winner’s artwork». — Sergey Komarov
Prize Fund
Since many artists are in a difficult situation now because of the systemic cancellation of the events, shows and exhibitions, we decided to offer a money reward to the winners: a modest one for getting to the short list ($100) and a more considerable one ($500) for the first place plus the production of the full version of the artwork for the CD.
