Call For Submissions

Please send us up to three different artworks, documented via high-resolution PNG photographs! For each piece, include photographs for two early stages/versions as well as the final piece. We welcome submissions of paintings, textile art, sculpture, assemblage, and more — so long as we can accurately represent the work and its process via static online images, we’re open to any medium.

We request that you clearly label each PNG file as follows:

  • LastName_Title_Early/Middle/Final. For example, the PNG file for the final draft of “Untamed” by Lisa Cox in Issue One would be titled Cox_Untamed_Final.
  • In the body of the email submission, you can also note the dates for your progress on the piece.

We are always interested in work that tells the story of survival, resistance, and healing; imagines futures of care, justice, and liberation; reckons with collective grief; explores complex identities; remembers legacies and lineages; centers indigenous knowledge; engages in desire, sex, sexuality, the erotic, and ritual; examines the digital age and digs into modern mythologies; celebrates the natural world; is beautiful, and offers comfort in times of grief. While these are suggestions of themes that we are interested in, we are open to any work that, through revision and experimentation, persists in telling a compelling story.

As we publish drafts alongside the final piece, please make sure you have reviewed our full Submission Guidelines. We can’t wait to read your work and witness your process!
