ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE WAS NOT TRUE

Catalyst Arts’ annual Member’s Show is now open for submissions!

This year’s open call asks members to respond to the relationship between technology and society. In an ever-evolving age of technological advancements, Catalyst Arts asks what do we gain and what do we lose? We are encouraged to adapt the latest innovations seamlessly into our lives and to look only at the benefits, yet the rise of technology has led to societal disconnect rather than harmony. How do we navigate the future without losing ourselves in the process?

The exhibition will run from 5th - 26th February 2026.

The curation, install, and de-install of the show will be handled by Catalyst Arts and our team of co-directors.

Please note this is an unpaid opportunity.
