Join members of the London-based Digital Bodies Collective and other New York-based artists for a group exhibition featuring short films, performances, sculptural installations, and a special zine release. "Between a Frame and a Soft Place" is a group exhibition of time-based works, performance, and immersive installations that meditate on the concept of the digital body, and how it moves, morphs, and manifests in both tangible and intangible realms. The exhibition bridges film screenings, gallery installation, experimental publishing, and performance, inviting visitors into the cracks where spillage and glitching of physical and digital realities can be glimpsed.

Through this hybrid format, the show examines how technology reconfigures identity and presence, prompting us to consider where the human ends and the digital body begins. In this liminal space, the body becomes an evolving assemblage, shaped by ecology, power structures, and the screens we inhabit.

We’re seeking submissions that explore:
 •  Embodiment & identity: How digital interfaces reconfigure our sense of self
 •  Techno [trans]formations: Emerging tech reshaping human interaction
 •  Memoria & myth-making: Personal or collective narratives in a screen-saturated age
 •  The spectral & sensory: Immersive or experimental works that blur the line between data and flesh

Submission Categories
 •  Short Film & Video Art (Up to 13 min)
 •  Installation, Wall-mounted Visual Work, Sculptural Work
 •  Sound / Performance (Live or pre-recorded)
 •  Zine Contributions (poetry, prose, artwork / imagery)
