The Shape Open is an annual call-out which invites disabled and non-disabled artists to submit work in response to a disability focused theme.
This year's theme, 'Disability Re-assessed', generated submissions from an exciting multidisciplinary range of artists and includes painting, textile, photography and video works. After a successful six month tour the exhibition has reached its final destination, opening at the Lewisham Arthouse from Wednesday 12 - 29 March 2014.
Join us at the exhibition tour closing party on Friday 28 March 2014 from 6 - 8:30PM for the final opportunity to see this unique and thought provoking collection of works by 29 emerging contemporary artists.

Yinka Shonibare MBE, launched the exhibition at the Nunnery Gallery (Bow Arts) and commented on the winning submission:
'Eric Fong's winning film is piece which plays with perception, and moves between abstraction and reality. What is so impactful here is that it plays with one's own judgment and feelings of how other people might look different to one's own self.'
