THEME: Landscapes | CALL FOR ENTRIES | AN INTERNATIONAL JURIED PHOTO EXHIBITION
Theme: Landscape images capture spaces within the world that are sometimes unending and vast, other times intimate and microscopic. While landscape photographers typically showcase the presence of nature, their work also can focus on man-made features or disruptions within natural vistas. Many landscape images present an unsullied view of nature, free from human influence—emphasizing subjects such as sharply defined landforms, weather, ambient light, and other sublime elements. Beyond aesthetic appeal, landscapes often convey deeply personal and emotional nuances, hinting at hidden stories of fondness, love, and nurturing, or past emotional turbulence, loss, and regret.
The Praxis Gallery seeks photographic artwork that explores a broad, interpretive, and personal investigation of the landscape: both as a place or an idea, as a literal expression or conceptual iteration. All genres, capture types, black & white and color, traditional and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission.
