FREE ENTRY / Sims Contemporary - Volume Control Call for Entries

Volume Control plays with the idea of presence how art occupies space, how it asserts itself, and how it whispers or shouts. This exhibition explores the physical and emotional dimensions of “volume,” from the literal manipulation of mass and scale to the more abstract ways artists dial intensity up or down.

​

We’re interested in work that leans into its own presence whether through bold form, quiet tension, saturated color, subtle texture, or psychological weight. Volume Control doesn’t prescribe a particular aesthetic or medium; instead, it invites artists to explore what it means to take up space, to hold the viewer’s attention, or to disappear into stillness. Loud or soft, massive or restrained it’s all about intention.
