Description
Prospect Art’s 4th WALL—a network of international organizations that promote video works—is currently looking for video works for our 2025 programming, “Affective Territories, Alternate Belonging.” Entries will be considered for physical exhibitions in Los Angeles and Lisbon, and on-line screenings through Prospect Art, a not-for-profit arts organization based in Los Angeles. Selected works will be provided a screening fee and may be included in other opportunities within the network in the future .
We are looking for visual artists at any career stage that work in the medium of video from anywhere in the world. The works can be experimental, non-narrative or narrative as long as they are in the realm of video art, are conceptually based, and relate to the theme of the show, co-authored by Prospect Art's Curatorial Fellow Prima Jalichandra-Sakuntabhai, and Prospect Art's 4th-Wall Program Manager Pedro Inock.
Affective Territories Alternate Belonging
We are seeking video works that challenge traditional notions of belonging beyond colonial borders. We welcome submissions of works with an emphasis on countering hyper-mediatization in the post-internet era, works that question the true nature of our globalized society, that explore emotional connections to land, ancestral memory, and communities beyond conventional boundaries. This open call advocates rejecting digital orthodoxy. It invites video works that explore the subtle "line" of affective territories, aiming to redefine globalization through interpersonal connections while highlighting the significance of tenderness and belonging in a post-digital society marked by network individualism.
