Postcard - Branding (2).png

Digital ShortWorks is a NewWorks festival where video performances from artists across all disciplines related to the theme Postcards will be presented online in spring 2023. 

 

Postcards- to/from.
We are asking artists to send a snippet. A snippet of art. A snippet of you. A snippet of a perspective. To- you, me, us, here, there, tomorrow, yesterday. From- you, me, a time, a place, a feeling, a meal.

Pieces can range from 2-5 minutes, and be any art form, at any stage of development. Pieces can be composed of: reading of a new script, exploration in text, exploration in movement, in dance, exploration in music, in puppetry, poetry reading, workshopping ideas, snippets of a larger work, etc.

We highly encourage artists of all ages, backgrounds and disciplines to submit.

 

PAYMENT

Each artist involved and outlined in the pitch will be given a $250 fee. These fees will be delivered once the final video projects are received.

 

For example: Jill will be presenting 5 minutes of a new script they wrote, and will have Jack and Jess read. Jill, Jack and Jess will each be receiving $250 for their work totaling $750.

"We wish to honour the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat, and the Neutral Nation who are the traditional custodians of the land upon which we stand and the waters that flow through it. It is our privilege to share this land, which has been the site of imagination since the beginning of human experience.  

 

Hermione Presents ~ SpringWorks is located on land governed by both the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant of 1701 and the Huron Tract Treaty of 1827. We are mindful of broken covenants and the need for us to respectfully listen, to learn from our mutual history and to strive continuously for reconciliation at all levels. 

 

The responsibility to nurture this land and protect the future falls to us all and in so doing, we actively honour the wisdom of those who came before us."
