October Artist In Residence: The Power of Heritage

THE BRIEF – THE POWER OF YOUR HERITAGE

South Asian culture is so much more than Diwali. It encompasses so many customs, religions and lived experiences. Yet society has a very one-dimensional view of it. This burst we’re focussing on the South Asian community, and we want you to show us work that represents what your heritage means to you. Maybe it’s just a small part of your identity, the learnings from and strength of your family’s stories – however you define it, show us your heritage in its full power.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ENTRY

If submitting imagery with models, please ensure permissions are granted for any models featured.

Final artists will need to sign a release form to give permission for your work to be showcased in Pocc, Shutterstock and Clear Channel social, online and media communications worldwide as well as in outdoor media as part of the 2022 Art Fund programme.

Final artists will be invited to become a Shutterstock Content Collaborator, although this is optional and not a pre-requisite of receiving the £500 grant.

Our team will endeavour to supply a site list before your art goes live across billboards so you can see your work live.

Final artwork will be live for up to a period of two weeks from launch.
