About this opportunity
OOA Gallery in Barcelona is inviting submissions from contemporary African textile artists for a research and selection process leading to a group exhibition scheduled for September. The open call focuses on artists who treat textile as a conceptual and critical medium—exploring themes such as identity, memory, material intelligence, and form. The gallery is particularly interested in artists with a strong visual language and an established or emerging professional practice, working across techniques like weaving, stitching, fibre-based sculpture, assemblage, and hybrid textile approaches.
