Virion provides artists the opportunity to display their work across a network of public screens and access a diverse audience. The exhibition is open to all users from professional and emerging artists to people experimenting with cameras and scanners. There is no juried selection process and each work is given equal showing time. Submissions may be in the form of digital stills or video files up to 100MB each.

Each screen will play a compilation of diverse images and video that represent a wide & integrated range of local and international art practices and styles. Screens are located across a range of public, gallery and institutional sites to offer unique viewing experiences and to maximize & diversify Brisbane audiences' exposure to new media practices.

All submissions also play on the Virion website.

Throughout the exhibition the audience is invited to respond and participate by contributing further content to the show. Sites will be updated progressively to include all work.

Virion opened in Brisbane on July 20 2010 at The Block. The show received over 150 works from over 20 countries around the world that represented a dynamic range of photography, painting, drawing, collage, animation and video at a combination of gallery, institutional, commercial, recreational and on-line sites.

Submissions are currently closed but we are currently organising sites and partnerships for Virion 2011 so watch this site for updates!!
