OPEN CALL: Geometric Gestures

dodomu gallery is happy to announce our new open call - Geometric Gestures. The exhibition aims to explore geometry and its vocabulary highlighting the interplay of linework, shape, form and pattern. Whether that's a curved line of a solid form or sharp angle of a brushwork, we are looking for how geometry plays a role in your work.
