Blisters Blackout submissions call


40 Illustrators. 40 Edition and hand signed prints. 40 Pounds each.


We are bringing together a mixture of established and emerging illustrators for BLISTERS BLACKOUT a winter feast of hand pulled, screen printed posters.

This year we are asking every one to add a ‘glow in the dark’ element to their poster design. We will be ‘Blacking Out’ the venue at points during the opening night so your posters can really GLOW!

THE BRIEF
The brief is open, to allow artists to develop their own work within the format of a B2 screen-printed poster. Each design will be printed as an edition of 40, produced by the artist.
Poster size: B2 (500 x 700mm)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Your posters will be viewed at the show and on folk's walls mostly in daylight so your poster design needs to work well in both daylight and the dark.

Remember this is a poster not just an illustration that you place onto B2 size paper.

All posters designs are to be new work, not previously exhibited or seen by the public.

The edition MUST be screenprinted.
