RISD YTB 10: Ten x Ten Call for Proposals!
Deadline: Friday April 8th.

Spring greetings from RISD YTB!🌻

We are accepting submission proposals for ISSUE 10: Ten x Ten !

YTB Issue 10: Ten x Ten is a boxed collection of flat and 3D
student-made items. Ten x Ten is a celebration of past YTB
Issues (Swap, Tiny, Pattern etc.) all in one!

To round out our 5th year, we are putting together this issue
as a thankyou and celebration of what has only been possible
with the consistent support + excitement from submitters
and the larger RISD community + beyond!

Prompt: One Thing Ten Ways

YTB is seeking 60 student proposals for a series of 5x8”
original flat-ish works and 30 student proposals for a series
of 4x2.5x1.5” (max) objects. By “one thing ten ways” we
mean a series of 10 executions/different versions of a similar
theme, image, object, etc. This could mean a painted card
with 10 color palettes, a 3D file digitally fabricated 10 ways,
a rectangular prism made out of 10 materials, really anything!

Proposals should be for a collection of flat-ish works OR small
objects, not both combined! We are asking a minimum
of 10 items be produced per submission, but this isn’t a maximum;
as always, the more the merrier!

Proposal deadline is Friday April 8th.

Please send proposals to [email protected]
in the form of written description, images, mock-ups, sketches, etc.

--------------------YTB 9: THANK YOU FOR COMING--------------------
Hello,

YTB is currently accepting proposals for Issue 9: Thank You for Coming until the end of this week, FRIDAY NOVEMBER 13TH.

Issue 9 is a series of altered wearables. We are asking that each
submitter alter (reconstruct, dye, process, embroider, etc.) a minimum of 3 ###L gray or heather green long sleeve, beefy, t-shirts into something cool/new/inventive.

Proposals should be written descriptions, sketches, mock-ups,
or face to face conversations. Please keep the idea of "one size fits all" at the forefront of your plans.

You can send proposals and questions to [email protected]

RISD - YTB ISSUE 9: THANK YOU FOR COMING is here!! This issue features artist-altered wearables. We are asking submitters to reinvent/alter XXL shirts (that we will provide). Artists may cut, sew, embellish, print, dye, reconstruct (etc.) their shirt, but please keep the idea of "one size fits all" in mind! If interested please submit a proposal (sketch, written description, phone call, drop in--we want to know what you're thinking) by Monday Oct. 26! Venue and release date TBD.

As mentioned before, ISSUE 9 is taking different forms on each campus (RISD and MICA separately) this semester. To clear up any confusion on this shared FB page, RISD posts will always start with "RISD-". (hehe!)

Please let us know if you have any questions at all. We look forward to seeing the proposals soon! Send all proposals or questions to [email protected] :]

There has been some confusion recently about YTB's status as a publication so hopefully this will serve to clarify! While both RISD and MICA chapters are still active, we are not collaborating on this next issue. Light Weight is being hosted exclusively on MICA's campus and so we cannot take RISD submissions this semester. While we are looking into collaborating again in the future, for the time being MICA and RISD are working independently on issue 9.
