Séance

SÉANCE: A HAUNTED ART EXPERIENCE

The veil is thin. The air is charged. Something is waiting to be seen.

We invite artists of all disciplines to submit work for Séance, a group exhibition exploring the eerie, the otherworldly, and the unseen. This immersive show seeks to conjure the presence of ghosts, spirits, and psychic residue through visual art.

Emerging and established artists are encouraged to apply.

Memento Mori Gallery & Tattoo is a lowbrow contemporary art gallery & private tattoo studio located in the 40West Arts District in Lakewood, Colorado, just 15 minutes from downtown Denver. We are in the same shopping center as Casa Bonita.

Séance delves into communication beyond the veil—rituals, hauntings, folklore, spiritualism, and the mysteries that linger between life and death. We are looking for work that evokes tension, curiosity, and the uncanny. Think shadow and silence, echoes and apparitions, the beauty and terror of what we cannot fully understand.

Memento Mori Gallery & Tattoo is a lowbrow/outsider contemporary art gallery located in the 40West Arts District, part of the art walk circuit, and in the same shopping center as Casa Bonita. We get good foot traffic on First Fridays.

2D & 3D artwork. $25 entry fee per piece, can submit up to 2 pieces. Artwork must be for sale, with 40% of sale going to gallery. Piece must be ready to hang or display physically (will not display digital artwork unless it is printed and framed/mounted properly). "Ready to Hang" means hanging hardware is already attached - plain canvas without hanging wire is not "ready to hang". We will reject anything not ready to hang at drop off. Hanging wire preferred, no adhesive mounts, and must be able to hang from a hook or nail. We will also not accept any photographic work that depicts another artist’s artwork without express permission from the artist to show and sell the photograph; this includes street art.

*Out-of-state artists are responsible for shipping costs to and from the gallery. Please do not submit unless you are prepared for this.
