Exhibit your work at Weavers Cot, a 16th-century Grade II* listed estate in Kent, exploring the theme INSIDE | OUT – the sensation of stepping beyond oneself, out-of-body moments, dislocation, separation from time, identity or place. Open to artists aged 18 and over living in the UK or Ireland. Seeking bold interpretations across 2D and 3D media (literal, abstract, emotional or conceptual) that challenge perception. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distinguished guest judges Leila Alexander (Global Director at White Cube) and Fran\u00e7ois Delage (collector), alongside curator Jemimah Patterson, will select twenty-five exceptional artists. Public selling exhibition runs 12th September to 4th October 2026. One outstanding artist awarded \u00a31,000 prize for artwork that particularly successfully embraces the theme. Selected artists notified by 12th July 2026. Artwork delivery 30th-31st August 2026, exhibition preview 12th September, collection of unsold works 5th October. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
