Call for Entry: Handmade / Site:Brooklyn

Site:Brooklyn Gallery is dedicated to exhibiting the current practice of contemporary artists. Site:Brooklyn is going online with a new series of interactive exhibitions. The human hand possesses a particular intelligence. From the earliest carved tools to the studio traditions of ceramics, glass, textile, and woodwork, artists have long understood that artistic creation comes from a synthesis of mental and physical labor. In an era increasingly shaped by mechanical and digital reproduction, the handmade object points towards something different: a focus on touch and the material process. For Handmade, SiteBrooklyn is looking for works, across all mediums, that foreground the artist’s hand as both process and subject — the point where thought becomes physical, direct, and irreversible action.
