With a UK General Election looming on 4 July, we are faced with 6 weeks of politicians performing for us to attract our votes. We will be entertained with amusing memes, enraged by broken promises, enthused by visions of the future and perplexed by the choices on offer.

So we thought this would be a great opportunity to call on artists who create politically minded work to send us their submissions for an exhibition exploring political themes.

Your work may be about political activism, caricature, exploring social, political, environmental or economic issues. It could be local, national or international in its outlook. Are you looking at historical political themes, commenting on present-day concerns in the UK or worldwide or envisioning the future, for better or worse?

There are so many themes you could explore:

inequality, racism, sexism, the environment, poverty, food banks, NHS, economy, inflation, housing, education, etc. Are you angry, sad, fearful, hopeful, pensive, optimistic, pessimistic, enthusiastic or jaded about the future? Why not channel those emotions into creating a new piece of art? Or you may already have made some work that is perfect for the theme of this show.

The work can be 2D or 3D, although we do not have the ability to show video or sound work.

If you are interested in submitting your work for this exhibition, please act quickly as we need to receive them by no later than 17 June.
