'Insert There' invites you to envision where a piece of art work you have made could be located.

It draws inspiration from David Reed’s ‘Two Bedrooms in San Francisco’, in which the artist inserted images of his paintings into scenes from Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo as well as Mel Chin and the GALA Committee’s ‘In the Name of Place’, a project in which artworks were created and surreptitiously installed into the set of the television series Melrose Place.

To make a submission, select one of your artworks. Choose a location - whether a renowned museum, a public park, an urban space, or even a scene from film or TV - and 'insert' your artwork into that space using digital or analogue methods. Within this location, your artwork can be re-scaled to whatever size you would like it to be.

Submissions must include a final composite image of their artwork integrated into the chosen location, created by either digital methods (seamlessly editing the artwork into the location) or analogue techniques (using physical collage or similar approaches).

Selected submissions will be exhibited on the 16 metre wall in 'The Street' at Bath Spa University's Locksbrook Campus.
