Calls & opportunities
3 listedManuscript submissions
Artists and writers should approach IKE with a clear sense of how their work engages with the book as a medium—whether through text, image, or hybrid forms. Proposals should demonstrate a strong conceptual foundation and an awareness of the project's DIY, collaborative spirit. While IKE welcomes experimental work, it values clarity of intent and feasibility of production. Submissions are typically open calls; check the website for specific themes or deadlines. Include a concise project description, sample materials, and a realistic production plan. Patience is advised, as responses may be slow due to the volunteer-run nature of the project.
