🎨 CALL FOR ARTISTS: MORBID CURIOSITY 🖤

Art Factory Renfrew Art Supply Shop
📅 August 20 – September 19, 2026

What are we drawn to—even when it makes us uncomfortable?

Morbid Curiosity invites artists to explore social commentary surrounding risk, harm, stigma, danger, the uncanny, and the things we are simultaneously repulsed by and fascinated with.

We want to see your interpretation of the theme.

🖤 All mediums are welcome, including:
• Painting & Drawing
• Photography
• Video
• Textile Arts
• Sculpture
• Prose & Poetry
• Mixed Media
…and more!

HOW TO APPLY

Share images or examples of your work in the comments of the original Call for Artists post on the Art Factory Facebook or Instagram page.

📅 Submission Deadline: August 13, 2026
📩 Selected artists will be contacted by 5 PM on August 15, 2026.

Come explore the darker side of curiosity.

What fascinates you because it frightens you?

🖤 Live Love Art.

Richard Bennett invited me to stay at his cottage. We stayed up late creating. The next morning we resumed creative activities, and then canoed to an island a few kilometres away and continued. We had a wonderful time. Here are a few images a video of these moments.

A few works on paper created at Lake Kashwakamak Art retreat.
