‘The Culture of Language’ Art Competition

WetPaint Collective, the group that brought us the ‘Lingua Franca’ performance art piece in the library, will be running an art competition from 21 December – 15 January. Show your support for the Modern Languages department and staff by creating works that visually express the importance of language. Any medium can enter!

To enter, simply:

  1. Post your work on Instagram and tag #WetPaintCompetition2023, #SaveUoALanguages, @wetpaint2023
  2. Email your work to WetPaintProject2023@gmail.com

Works must be about EITHER:

  1. The importance of the Modern Languages department
  2. Student perspectives on the Modern Languages predicament
  3. Actions the Uni can take towards creating a sustainable department

*Aggression towards any UoA staff will not be tolerated (please channel your anger creatively).

The winning work gets £50!

Entries will be judged by a panel on:

  1. Creativity – How unique is your portrayal of the UoA Languages crisis?
  2. Subject Clarity – Can someone new to the issue understand the meaning of your piece?

Submitted works will go towards future #SaveUoALanguages campaign efforts!
