UN FORM ED
UN FORM ED is The Emerging Art Foundation’s short-form edition, our newest initiative in supporting and promoting the creation and display of works of interdisciplinary creative practice. Each edition will be published in the Spring showcasing four entries by artists and writers who explore the interactions between visual and writerly practices.
The Emerging Art Foundation will issue a prompt to which applicants must respond. The aim of the prompt is to invite a broad variety of interpretations and responses to the generative possibilities of language and the challenges of working within formal constraints.
The four successful applicants will receive an honorarium of £100 each.
Each edition of UN FORM ED will be available to download free of charge on our website. We will be printing a limited number which can be ordered online.
Applications open for UN FORM ED on 26th February 2025. The deadline for all submissions is 16th March 2025 at midnight.
