Monica Mardare
I am a London-based curator interested in exploring themes of identity, duality, and emotional presence through thoughtfully curated group and solo exhibitions. My work brings together artists across disciplines — including photography, sculpture, video, installation, and performance — whose practices engage with introspection, transformation, and the layered experience of being.
I create exhibitions that invite reflection and sensory engagement, valuing materiality, atmosphere, and the emotional dialogue between artwork and viewer. My curatorial approach is grounded in collaboration, attention to detail, and a sensitivity to both concept and presentation. I aim to provide meaningful opportunities for artists to share their work within carefully composed and resonant spaces across London.

Call for Artists "Shelter" London, SE1
Deadline: 30/09/2026City: london | Region: London | Country: United Kingdom | Monica Mardare
Shelter Not necessarily a roof. We invite artists working in any medium to submit work that responds — directly, obliquely, or unexpectedly — to the question above. The work does not need to explain shelter. It does not need to illustrate it. It needs only to hold something true about what protects you, and to do so with intention and care. We are not looking for a particular aesthetic or form. We are looking for specificity — for artists who have identified something real, and found a way to bring it into the room.

Call for Art "Membrane", London SE1
Deadline: 15/10/2026City: london | Region: London | Country: United Kingdom | Monica Mardare
Membrane Not necessarily biological. “What passes through you, and what doesn't?” This is the only question. Every work is an answer. We invite artists working in any medium to submit work that responds — directly, obliquely, or unexpectedly — to the question above. The work does not need to explain membrane. It does not need to illustrate it. It needs only to hold something true about what you let through and what you hold back, and to do so with intention and care. We are not looking for a particular aesthetic or form. We are looking for specificity — for artists who have identified something real, and found a way to bring it into the room.
