DISRUPTED

An Online Exhibition in Collaboration with WO Foundation

Curated by: Sergio Gomez

About

An online exhibition in collaboration with WO Foundation exploring aspects of disruption and interference in our everyday life. From social and political unrest, technological innovation, to psychological trauma, we have experienced a disturbance in the way we experience life. Disruptions come when we less expect them and often have a way of awakening new ways of looking at the world. WO Foundation artists are invited to interpret the idea of disruption in their own context and submit to this exhibition artworks that explore this concept.

Exhibition runs from March 14 to April 30, 2022.

A Message from Sergio

As an artist myself, I know how expensive it can be to get exposure. For this reason, I've created this page. Exposure does not have to be a "pay to play" game.

I encourage you to submit to every show. If you get selected, congratulations!! If you do not get selected, do not get discouraged. Keep trying. It is free and you've got nothing to loose.

I wish you nothing but great success in your art career and don't forget to tag your best Instagram posts with #sergiogomezcurates.

Sincerely yours,

Sergio Gomez, MFA
Artist, curator, career coach
