A print can be an impression, a trace, a copy, a record, a pattern, a surface, or evidence of an action.  In an increasingly automated and digitally reproduced world, what does it mean to make something by hand? What happens when labour becomes repetitive in the printing process?  And how might repetition become a strategy for resistance, survival, memory or transformation? We welcome practices that engage with the theme directly or indirectly, asking artists to consider the physical, social, political, emotional and economic dimensions of labour and repetition. We are interested in work exploring: - Repetitive labour and routine and how it links to printing - The process of making and skilled labour of printing - Printmaking, stamping, copying and seriality - Digital reproduction and the circulation of images - Repetition as ritual, habit or compulsion through the process of printing Who can apply? any one who works in print as a medium  The open call is open to emerging, mid-career and established artists internationally. We also encourage students, recent graduates, and self-taught artists to apply. There are no submission fees to enter or if you are selected! We are interested in ideas and practices rather than credentials, and encourage submissions from artists who may not traditionally identify their work as being connected to print.
