Call for Artists: We Can Work It Out 2026
Theme: Divide by Zero
Presented in partnership by Inner West Creative Network & Sydney Street Gallery, Marrickville / Bulanaming
Curated by Sara Buchner
Divide by Zero
Art meets maths in this annual group exhibition exploring the creative potential of mathematical thinking.
In 2026, we’re embracing the paradox. Divide by Zero invites artists to respond to rupture, disruption, and the space where logic breaks down and imagination takes over. This year’s theme explores tension between structure and collapse, certainty and impossibility — and the unexpected beauty that can emerge when the rules no longer apply.
Open to artists of all backgrounds and mediums, Divide by Zero is a curated exhibition championing bold experimentation, cross-disciplinary thinking, and community connection. No commission is taken on sales — artists keep 100% of their earnings.
