Join my creative group

[Shut_in_Commie]

Hello! In short, I am trying to find people who are like me. I am in search of people who use art to truly express their feelings & perspective. I want YOU. Whatever storytelling you do, whether it be visual art, writing, music, show up and show out!!!
.
HOWEVER, If You:
.
-Aren’t serious about your art
-Don’t explore art outside the mainstream
-Are a right winger
.
You probably aren’t one of the people I’m looking for. I want people open to art that is experimental or abstract, art that pushes its medium, art that ignores the boundaries of genre or that portrays something deeper. I don’t want people who scoff at things they don’t understand.
.
If you decide to DM me, and you are really one of the people I’m looking for, I will consider you a Shut-in Creative.

YOU WILL GIVE:

-Samples of your art / a place where your art can be viewed
-Some information about yourself to help me get to know you

YOU WILL RECIEVE:

-Feedback from other Shut-in Creatives
-Chance to collaborate with other Shut-in Creatives
-Full promotion via social media

.
My interests / ideas about art
.
I am most interested in art that explores pain and trauma. This doesn’t mean that I dislike positive art. I love any art that I believe expresses or represents the truth of a feeling. The only art that I dislike is art that goes against expression. I don’t like conformity, I don’t like dishonesty, and I don’t like generic stories.
.
Some examples of art that I love:

Death Grips - His & Her Circumstances - Chainsaw Man - The Caretaker - ENA - Lil Nas X - Baphomet Kun - Squimpus McGrimpus - godweaver - Mitski - ezekiel singles ‘18-’20 - FLCL - Evangelion - Satoshi Kon - sewerslvt - George Miller

BOTTOM LINE!

I want artists who are skilled and passionate, who pour their souls into their work. Artists who can let their skill speak for their ideas, and who don’t want to be held back by convention or conformity. Contact me and I will get to know you, then we’ll find out if you’re one of the people I’m searching for. Hit me up if you’re interested.

P.S.- This isn't a big thing right now. It's only me at the time of this post. Hopefully we can change that, if you're the one I'm looking for. UPDATE- two people have joined me. Please make it more!

[Shut_in_Commie]

keeping it alive, please somebody show up.

What exactly are you planning to do with these creatives you're looking for? You'd probably get more attention if you just laid out your plans for a project right here tbh! Otherwise, you're just vaguely asking people to audition for making some moody, artsy stuff. I don't have too much of an issue with the idea, but I'd argue there's quite a few of users on the forums already kinda doing that on their own lol

If you wanna make something experimental or abstract, I really think it'd be in your best interest to share some idea of what you'd wanna make with these people. Maybe even talk about how you can take the art into that direction. If you have something planned already, give a brief explanation of what that is. You already have examples that show your interests, but I think sharing a bit more might help ok byyye

fair + you ratio'd me. I don't have a grand plan other than just being able to communicate with like-minded people and help each other out when needed. I guess what I'm picturing is similar to a music label, where each artist has their own projects going on under one group name which promotes their work. I would like to do one big project once a year, though, where all the members work together on one thing.
I guess my main goal is to have an online art club that does more than send works-in-progress on discord without actually getting things done.

Do you prefer that I contact you first through Discord or through here via DM?

[Shut_in_Commie]

Discord would be more convenient for me and I would reply faster
