With a focus on women artists based in or seeking exposure in the UK and Europe, we offer strategic professional development, curatorial guidance, and a gateway to the art market.
The programme addresses ongoing disparities in representation and valuation. “Women artists don't struggle because they lack talent. They struggle because the system still isn't built for them,” says Dina Mostovaya, founder of Sensity Studio. “With On the Other Way, we want to give these artists what they often lack: access, guidance, visibility, and the tools to succeed.”
The open call offers participants professional portfolio reviews and career insights from experienced curators and art consultants. One selected artist will receive three months of bespoke PR support from the Sensity Studio team, including strategy development, media placement, and a chance to exhibit in a group show in Barcelona. Three additional finalists will receive personalised portfolio assessments and a one-hour strategic consultation to refine their artistic practice and market positioning.
Submissions will be reviewed by a jury panel of experienced professionals in the contemporary art field:
