The Starving Artist invites artists from all disciplines to submit their work for an exhibition exploring and examining interpretations of health care + mental health experiences.

This open call seeks to gather diverse perspectives, from modern-day understandings of how we treat and care for wellbeing.

The theme of the exhibition is disability rights within the UK (and globally), centred around the increasingly oppressive system of government that prioritises capital over people, endangering the lives of people with disabilities by implementing austerity measures that severely decrease their quality of life.

This exhibition aims to bridge understanding by creating a conversation that pushes for lasting change to support those with disabilities and better their quality of life.

Accepted artists will be part of an online Virtual Reality group exhibition, along with a publication/catalogue, and social media publicity with the chance to be featured in a physical exhibition in London at a later date.

Artists are encouraged to explore diverse artistic mediums that can be displayed in a Virtual Gallery Space, including but not limited to: painting, drawing, and illustration, sculpture and installation (images of work), photography and digital art, mixed media and collage, performance and interactive art, video art and animation.
