Submissions now open!
Want to join Shaun by the Sea as an artist? Applications are now open!
In the autumn of 2023, over 40 ewe-niquely designed sculptures will be placed on the streets of Brighton & Hove. Our flock of colourful sheep will provide a 3D canvas, and creative inspiration, for a wealth of art and design from a carefully curated mix of well-known and emerging local artists.
Artists, are invited to submit designs which will be shortlisted by our expert trail curator team. These are displayed at a private exhibition, where the sponsors will have the chance to choose their design. The selected artists will be commissioned to translate their design onto a three-dimensional blank Shaun sculpture.
Submissions will close on 6 January 2023, so make sure ewe don’t miss out!
