LabBodies is currently accepting proposals for it’s third annual performance art review: FREEDOM, November 1 - 29, 2017, at SpaceCamp.
For its third iteration of Boundaries, Borders and Barricades Performance Art Review, Labbodies invites proposals from artists from the DMV (DC, Maryland and Virginia) area for site-specific installations, live performances, video projections and new media work to address topics related to freedom.

Project proposals should examine the concept of freedom in 21st century, searching for liberation or freedom in the face of extreme oppression. Artists are encouraged to examine moments in history where freedom is sparse and preserved for only a few citizens in the United States.
Sexual freedom, physical freedom, psychological freedom, racial freedom, and economic freedom.
How do the isms of our society interact with the state of being that is free? What does it reveal about our society? What comes with freedom? What does freedom look like in the context of the past, present and future? How do we obtain freedom? We seek proposals that examine any and all of these questions.
Submissions must be submitted by Sept 1, 2017. Selections will be made by the Labbodies Team and notified no later than September 15th, 2017

Selected artists will receive a $500 honorarium to produce new work. Proposals are welcome from visual and performance artists from DMV area. Strong consideration for artists of color, non-binary, LGBTQP who feel that they have been marginalized or disenfranchised from traditional presentations of art. -
