New York Photography Diary is going to London, and we’re looking for photographers to submit their work on the theme of “Borders,” to be exhibited at Carmel by the Green Gallery in East London.
Borders can encompass the geographical outline of a country, or the edges of a photo frame. What they permit and what they exclude speaks volumes about how we define ourselves as individuals, communities, and nations. Our changing relationship to the socio-political, economic, and cultural climate of a particular time and place is reflected in such shifting boundaries. Borders are far from an arbitrary means of separation; for better or worse, they allow us to (re)establish a sense of self.
