Compete NYC4PA: Apparel
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: June 1, 2025 – The New York Center for Photographic Art (NYC4PA) invites photographers worldwide to submit images using any photographic process (print, image transfer, emulsion transfer, encaustic, black and white, etc.).
Shirts, Pants, Accessories, Outfits, Onesies, Hats, Gloves, Booties, Kimonos, Saris, Sweaters and on and on. A part of everyone’s day includes the decision about what to wear, and, for many, how to dress the kids and the family pet.
For this call the emphasis is on how you, the photographer, capture these articles of clothing in a creative way. Does a uniformed officer create the mood in a picture of a crowd, is there a grouping of colorful blouses hanging in a shop, does a small part of a wedding gown catch your eye or is it just fun to see a boot on a child’s foot splash in a puddle or a hoodie on a pup with the ears poking out..
Winners will receive $4,000 in cash awards, be featured in the NYC4PA Online Gallery and in the winners catalog. The Grand Prize winning image will be posted on the NYC4PA home page.
ELIGIBILITY
This Call for Entries is open worldwide to both amateur and professional photographers. NYC4PA invites photographers working in all mediums, styles and schools of thought to participate. Experimental and mixed techniques are welcome. Only 2-D work is eligible.
