Open Call
Present your work
The arts have always embodied the dynamic interplay between transgression and collaboration. Transgression, the act of pushing boundaries, challenging norms, and disrupting established conventions, is at the heart of artistic innovation and creativity. It is through transgression that artists push the limits of their craft, challenge societal norms, and spark new modes of thought and experience. Collaboration, on the other hand, is the act of working together, pooling ideas and expertise, to create something greater than the sum of its parts. It is through collaboration that human societies join forces, agree, regulate, and build the political mechanisms that allow advancement and prosperity.
For the ACMC 2024 Conference, we invite scholars, artists, students, and creative practitioners to come together and explore the ways in which transgression and collaboration shape artistic and cultural expression across various disciplines, including but not limited to the visual and performing arts, literature, music, and digital media.
