Call to Artists: Locked In Creative Collaboration

Are you up for a challenge?
Coming-November 2014
“Locked In”
“A Creative Collaboration”
The YSAC Gallery Committee is looking for:
 3 individual artists or a 3-artist-team
And one photographer or videographer to document the process of the artists
 Artists from all media may apply.
$100.00 stipend (with a grant dependent chance for a larger stipend) awarded to each artist.
Here’s the scenario:
3 Artists locked in the gallery for 3 days.
3 large boxes of ‘stuff’ donated from the community to use in an art installation
3 artist tools they can each bring
3 phone calls= 1 phone call to a friend by each artist to bring something they’re missing
The challenge: Can 3 Artists, who may or may not have ever met each other before, in 3 Days look through 3 Boxes of random “stuff” that they have never seen before and come up with and agree on a plan together and then work together to create an art installation?  We get to find out in November 2014
(Food will be delivered to the artists and camping style sleeping accommodations will be available at the gallery. Indoor plumbing included.)
Jurying: A selection committee composed of Ohio-area art professionals will jury.
Submission Deadline: Applications will be accepted until August 15th.
