Sculpture Now
We are pleased to invite submissions for an online exhibition of three-dimensional work, Sculpture Now, curated by Duncan Robertson and Jenny Pope, who are both practising sculptors. We welcome applications in all media and materials, as long as it is three-dimensional.
We appreciate that the documentation and online presentation of sculptural work can be a challenge, and we hope that SSA members will explore some creative ways of best showing their work. We look forward to seeing the diverse submissions from our members.

The Society will then reimburse this cost to the artist once the buyer has received the work.
