Hiding in Plain Site: International Public Art Short Film Festival Open Call

An inaugural, curated international screening program of short moving-image works that explore or feature public art across global contexts. HPS aims to shine a light on the often misunderstood, complex global public art ecosystem, increasing awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the field and support for its community of artists. The festival features site-specific work, community-engaged projects, outdoor installations, performance-based work, and experimental approaches to art in public space, and accepts moving-image work across a wide range of forms, including documentary, narrative, video art, animation, experimental media, XR, and AI-generated or AI-assisted original work.
