Alternate Realities Artist Commission, Sheffield DocFest

Open call for applications to Sheffield DocFest 2022 Alternate Realities Commission.

Up to £15k funding, and curatorial support is available for an artist or collective to create/complete a new, non-fiction digital project. The selected proposal will be exhibited at Site Gallery during Sheffield DocFest 2022 (23-28 June), with the possibility of an extended exhibition run.

This open call is for artists who work in digital non-fiction, create immersive experiences or experiment with new technologies. They encourage applications from debut, emerging and established artists and collectives from around the world.

With thanks to Arts Council England & Site Gallery.

Sheffield DocFest welcome applications from artists based in the UK and internationally.

Applicants must be able to demonstrate a strong commitment to innovation in digital storytelling in the realm of non-fiction

Evidence of a strong body of artistic work, including a proven track record of recent work, projects, exhibitions, publishing, and/or commissions is desirable, but not essential as this is completion funding

The panel is open to projects that may have already started or are in production, providing they are made aware of any other partners or funding bodies involved in the project
