DEVIATE is currently accepting applications for visual artists and musicians interested in taking part in the event which displays contemporary art and artists in an energetic, industrial environment.
DEVIATE is looking for artists who thrive on pushing the boundaries and sparking sensations whether through music, dance, sculpture, photography, live painting or beyond.
