Flash Forward Incubator 2017

For the 2017 Incubator program we are looking for the creation of contemporary photo based mixed media work that explores the theme of HABITAT TRANSFORMATION through varied narratives and imagery that document the world around us, present possibilities for the future, and/or inspire a reflection on our past.

We are very proud of the work that all of our Flash Forward Incubator participants have completed this year. All Incubator participants will be published in – and receive copies of – the 2017 Incubator Program catalogue. We are excited to continue our support of emerging artists in their earliest steps toward their career in the arts.

The Magenta Foundation gratefully acknowledges the support of TD Bank Group for their ongoing commitment to Flash Forward and to emerging artists.
