Umbrella Members’ Exhibition
Artificial: 2024 Umbrella Members’ Exhibition
Umbrella’s annual Members’ exhibition is back again in 2024 with another thought-provoking theme! The 2024 theme 'Artificial' invites members to be inspired by provocations such as artificial materials and artificial intelligence, or less literal interpretations of the theme – the artificial division of people, our declining natural environment, or the inevitable change of employment due to ever-evolving technology. We look forward to seeing your creative responses however you interpret it! The exhibition again will feature prominent prizes (to be announced).
ENTRIES FOR 2024 ARE NOW OPEN! Submit your entry by completing the form below.
