OPEN CALL ANNOUNCEMENT
English | Bahasa Indonesia
Every year, the curators and artistic team behind ICAD (Indonesian Contemporary Art and Design) conduct their research on emerging talents. As part of identifying promising individuals and collectives, ICAD also opens its doors for anyone to submit their creation in response to the festival’s theme, for a further selection process.
In its 12th edition, ICAD adopts Fragmeting Yesterday, Reshaping Tomorrow as theme. Through an understanding of ‘reconstruction’ as a process of not only creating the new, but also ‘reshaping’ the old, ICAD invites creatives from various disciplines ranging from design, art, architecture, fashion, science, technology, amongst others, to submit their project to be exhibited to the public during ICAD 12.
As the world steps forward to begin a new chapter post-pandemic, ICAD sees the need to reflect on this important phase. A time in which the past and the future intersect. A moment in which we look back to the things that have ended, as well as the possibilities that lie ahead.
What insights and habits have we learned during the pandemic or throughout the history of our society, which should be preserved, abandoned, or redesigned? The new ideas proposed by each participant may be inspired or moulded by their individual experience and perspective, as well as the communal culture or way of being of the society from which they come.
