Voice — New Voices: an Open Call for Emerging Artists

Overview
Voice's New Voices open call is a rolling invitation to emerging practitioners working across photography, painting, sculpture, film, dance, and visual art. The absence of a fixed deadline signals an ongoing curatorial appetite rather than a single thematic exhibition; submissions are reviewed as they arrive, which places a premium on clarity and self-editing over last-minute polish. The call is global in scope and carries no stated fee, prize, or location. That neutrality is deliberate: Voice appears to be assessing artistic voice rather than institutional fit. For the artist, the practical benefit is a low-friction point of entry—one bio is the only listed material—but the curatorial expectation is correspondingly high. With so little scaffolding, the work itself must carry the argument. Because the platform spans photography, painting, sculpture, film, dance, and visual art, the jury is likely reading for coherence of vision across media rather than medium-specific mastery alone. Emerging status is the one firm criterion; beyond that, the open call reads as a search for artists who can articulate a position, not merely a portfolio.
