July | Open Call Exhibition | Natural Order

Submission deadline: Monday 6 July, 11:59pm

Natural Order

Natural Order invites artists to explore systems, patterns, and rhythms that shape the world around us; from ecological cycles and geological processes to instinct, balance, and growth. This exhibition considers how order emerges through nature, whether structured or chaotic, fragile or resilient.

We welcome work that responds to ideas of pattern, repetition, balance, interdependence, and adaptation. This might include observations of natural systems, material-led processes, organic forms, or work that reflects humanity’s relationship with the environment. Artists may explore where natural order holds, where it breaks down, and how it continually reshapes itself.

Submissions may consider cycles, symmetry, entropy, sustainability, growth, decay, harmony, or disruption; the quiet intelligence of natural systems; or the ways in which materials, process, and time contribute to meaning.

Submitting Your Work

This open call is for emerging and established artists working in any medium, including (but not limited to) painting, drawing, print, photography, sculpture, ceramics, mixed media, installation, and time-based work.

All submissions will be reviewed by the curatorial team. Selection will be based on how strongly the work responds to the theme, alongside considerations of artistic quality, diversity of practice, and how works sit together within the exhibition as a whole.

Please complete the submission form carefully, providing clear images and concise supporting information. By submitting, you confirm that the work is available for the exhibition period and that you are able to deliver and collect work in line with the schedule below.

This exhibition encourages thoughtful, process-led work that invites reflection on our place within natural systems and rewards close looking and material sensitivity.

Accessibility & Inclusion

We are committed to creating an open, welcoming, and inclusive exhibition programme. We encourage submissions from artists of all backgrounds and levels of experience, including those who may face barriers to accessing the arts.

If you have access needs, require adjustments to the submission or installation process, or would like to discuss your work in a different format, please get in touch. We are happy to have a conversation and will do our best to support you.
