ABSTRACT

CALL FOR ENTRIES TERMS AND CONDITIONS

INFORMATION AND ELIGIBILITY

Open to all photographers internationally.

Abstract is where we are all in a sense, living in a shifted context of culture, we find ourselves out of our elements and having to try new things. We are looking at things in a whole different way now and having shifted perspectives looking at things in an abstract manner. We are seeing things close to us becasue we are not venturing out as far. When our lives are closer to home, we look at things closely.  Interesting ways of looking at what is in front of us and finding interest in the details, and it is refreshing to look through our cameras with a purely visual design elements and not having to think too critically about what it all means, a way to check out and let a stream of consciousness dictate visual asethetics. Lets look a how we are currently seeing things through the photographs represented in this exhibition.

Each photograph will be considered based upon the merit of individual images submitted by each artist, individual image selection will be made upon the creative merit and quality of individual images. Theme based entries are not necessary. A brief artist statement is optional.
