Call for Artists!

South East Queensland artists are invited to submit Expressions of Interest for FREEDOM: Revolution JOY!—a curated group exhibition and movement exploring the emotional, psychological, and personal landscapes of confinement, survival, and liberation.

Presented by GC Creative Events Inc., this project bridges a provocative visual arts showcase with an electrifying, all-female winter dance revolution. Together, these dual elements confront the invisible prisons of domestic violence and coercive control, transforming movement and visual expression into acts of resistance, autonomy, and collective strength.
