 This call invites proposals to exhibit multimedia, installation, digital, social practice and/or performance artworks at the opening night of DXC and lead a complimentary workshop on the theme of *Counterbalance,* which explores growing suppression and censorship as a site of artistic innovation and democratic possibility.

Selected artists will participate as delegates for the summit's duration and represent the role of the arts in strengthening democracies and civil societies.
