We invite LGBTQIA+ lens-based artists to explore queer life, identity, and forms of community.
The arts have long provided space for self-expression and for exploring identity in ways that may not be possible in other contexts. For many queer artists, image-making has also been a way to share lived experience, challenge social norms, and connect with others.
We welcome work that engages with self-representation, chosen family, intimacy, and the relationship between public and private space. Submissions may consider visibility and absence, safety and risk, or the different conditions that shape how queer identities are expressed across cultural and geographic contexts.
Selected works will be presented in an online exhibition on Der Greif’s homepage for one month.
