Artist statement and CV
​
The artist agrees to the above-mentioned terms by submitting artwork via this call.
​
Qloud Collective is a small, independent, artist-run curatorial team, not a gallery or profit-driven organisation. We curate shows out of our dedication to the arts and a desire to create opportunities to support individual voices. The fee collected during the application process helps offset essential administrative and logistical costs such as reviewing, processing, rental and preparing materials. This also ensures that Qloud is able to commit to future exhibitions and events. We understand the frustration that can come from not being selected, and we want to assure artists that our decisions are based on curatorial focus, spatial constraints, and over-exhibition cohesion - not a judgment of artistic merit.
​
Please note that our selection process is unique to Qloud. All submissions are anonymous during the selection. Our team would appreciate it if submissions did not explicitly identify or artist contact our selection team directly. We believe in fairness and that art can speak for itself regardless of your name, gender, ethnicity, nationality, etc.
