EMPTY PLACES : ABANDONED SPACES | CALL FOR ENTRIES | AN INTERNATIONAL JURIED PHOTO EXHIBITION
Entry Deadline | December 31st, 2021
Notice of Acceptance | January 12th, 2022
Exhibition Dates | Feb 19th - March 5th, 2022
Theme: Empty Places : Abandoned Spaces | Juror: Elizabeth Flinsch
Through the visual representation of abandoned spaces, artifacts of history are at once fresh and new, ancient, and decayed. The past continues to live in these forsaken, ruined, or empty spaces and we ask—Who were the people who lived and worked here? What were their lives like? What were their stories? What happened to them in these spaces?
Praxis Gallery seeks the submission of photographic art that explores the visual and social significance of abandoned space-where derelict factories, churches, private houses, or other empty places serve as the basis for creative investigation. All genres, capture types, color and black & white, traditional, and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission
