from notapathie - Friday, January 06, 2006 accessed 975 times Those who have been members of high-demand organizations are invited to submit proposals for an Arts Exhibit, tentatively called The Phoenix Project, to be presented at the June, 2006, International Cultic Studies Association conference in Denver, CO (http://www.icsahome.com/infoserv_conferences/2006_home.htm). It is suggested that submitted artwork show the world of ex-members, their healing or recovery, or their time of transition from their high-demand organization. Creations may be in any art form, including, but not limited to: literary (such as poetry, short story, drama, or other writings), music of any kind, dance, and the visual arts (such as paintings, drawings, collage, sculpture, fiber arts, photography, film, video, multi-media). If desired, this work may be presented anonymously. We expect that this exhibit will shed light on the reality of life in a high-demand organization and its effects on individuals, as well as provide an empowering experience for participating artists, who will have the chance to tell their own stories in their own ways. For more information, please e-mail Diana Pletts at: exmemberartwork@yahoo.com We look forward to considering your artwork for this event, and hope that you will join with us in making this exhibit a success. |
