Compete Filling the Frame
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: November 10, 2025 – This exhibition celebrates the art of composition under pressure—the creative act of finding beauty, coherence, and story in the midst of visual complexity. How close to chaos can you come and still make an engaging, aesthetically compelling picture?
For FILLING THE FRAME, we invite photographers to celebrate more: layered compositions, intersecting subjects, overlapping lines, patterns, and textures that fill the space with intention. Think of street scenes bursting with energy, crowded markets, tangled forests, intricate still lifes, or abstractions that challenge our sense of visual harmony.
On display: January 2 – January 31, 2026.
SELECTIONS
Juror will select up to 35 images in our Middlebury, Vermont Exhibition gallery and another 40 images for our Online Gallery. All 75 images will be reproduced in the exhibition catalog and remain permanently on our website, and be promoted on social media with links to photographers’ URL.
