For ISSUE 4 we are focusing on:

Discrimination, Privilege and Stigmatisation

We are looking for artists and creatives from all disciplines from all over the world to be featured in ASLI MAGAZINE!

Discrimination is happening all over the world against different categories of people, especially minority groups. People are being stigmatised for being themselves and privilege in many forms is stunting our progression as a species.

We would like you to submit a piece of artistic work on one of the following issues:

Racism
Xenophobia
Homophobia
Sexism
Ableism
Ageism
Islamophobia
White Privilege
Male Privilege
Neuro-typical Privilege
Able bodied/minded Privilege
Heterosexual Privilege
Gender identity Privilege
Class Privilege
Mental Illness Stigma
Religious Stigma
Fat Stigma
Disease Stigma
Cultural Stigma
Criminal Record Stigma

(If there are any other forms of prejudice, privilege and stigma you have faced please feel free to submit if it is not mentioned above – these serve as prompts)

So what do you need to do?

Please submit ONE piece of work for consideration, this can be ONE collection or ONE piece (if you submit more than one with no clear explanation we will look at your first one and choose according to this)
State your artistic discipline and chosen topic.
Please read about us first, see if you want to be part of our mission and make sure you understand who we are what we are about.
Do not just email a link (we will not follow it)
Remember we are a non-profit organisation
If you wish to submit in another language other than English we accept untranslated work in French and Arabic, all other languages must have an English translation attached.
