outsiders2005: a call for proposal // canavarlar

An open call from a group of exchange students in Malmö University ,
Faculty of Art, Culture and Communication (K3), for the art and design
students and related people in:

FINLAND, GERMANY, TURKEY, AUSTRALIA, SLOVENIA, SPAIN

We're all absolute strangers to the students of K3, as they are to us. We
are planning to explore the definition of outsider in the social spaces of K3
using student works from our home countries. Because we believe that
every outsider brings a piece of his home with him.

Looking at Malmö and K3 as the outsiders: This is what we do and what
we want to share.

Malmö as a city of multicultural habitats for outsiders from all around the
world, and K3 as the center of this definition for combining elements.

Through this project, we wish to learn if it is possible to be an outsider in
your home... and the most important question for us, whether being an
outsider is a choice or an obligation within the social enviroment that you
live.

The exhibition will be a part of the general K3 exhibition XK on 30th and
31st of May 2005.

Your works should deal with the concept of outsider - in any way you
yourself understand the concept - and to be in the medians which K3
teaches: virtual / interactive works, film / video, photography and sound.

We're taking in proposals by email now! We'll go through them on "first
come, first served" basis. Don't be shy with your ideas, we will be happy to
give you the green light as long as your idea is at all feasible.
