LAS Contemporary - Open Call: Encounters

LAS Contemporary invites submissions for Encounter, an online exhibition exploring moments of contact, whether brief or sustained, intimate or estranging, visible or internal. We’re looking for work that captures the emotional and psychological weight of an encounter, where something is met: another person, a memory, a rupture, a presence, a threshold, or even oneself.

An encounter can be transformative or disorienting, comforting or uncanny. It can leave an imprint, a question, a shift. Whether grounded in narrative, abstraction, or atmosphere, we’re interested in work that lingers in this tension, work that gestures toward something just outside the frame.

This exhibition will be curated by Chrissy Lush, artist and director of LAS Contemporary.
