Compete Praxis Gallery Juried Exhibition: Landscapes
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: December 1, 2024 – 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.
Landscape photography captures spaces within the world that are sometimes vast and unending, other times intimate and microscopic. While landscape photographers typically showcase the presence of nature, their work can also focus on man-made features or disruptions within natural vistas. Many landscape photographs 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.
Exhibition dates: January 18 – February 8, 2025.
ELIGIBILITY
Open to artists 18 years of age or older worldwide. All capture types, genres, black & white and color, traditional and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission. Submitted images may not have been exhibited at Praxis Gallery within the past year.
