We invite photographers from around the world to submit work for our upcoming exhibition exploring the theme: Whimsical.
We are seeking photographs that surprise, delight, and transport viewers beyond the expected. Whimsy may reveal itself through playful storytelling, imaginative staging, surreal elements, visual irony, unexpected juxtapositions, or quiet moments of magic found in everyday life.
This international call encourages broad interpretation. Whether bold or subtle, humorous or poetic, conceptual or documentary, we welcome work that invites curiosity, sparks joy, and reimagines reality through a creative lens.
All photographic styles and processes are eligible, including traditional, digital, experimental, and alternative techniques.
We invite photographers to submit work that explores the idea of capturing moments—fleeting, intimate, overlooked, or decisive. We are interested in images that hold time still: moments charged with emotion, tension, quiet, or transformation.
Submissions may reflect personal, social, or environmental experiences, and can be staged or candid, documentary or experimental. What matters most is the photographer’s ability to recognize a moment worth holding onto—and to translate it into a compelling visual language.
We invite photographers to reflect on Renewal—the fragile, powerful moment when something begins again.
Renewal can be quiet or dramatic, personal or collective. It may appear in cycles of nature and time, light after darkness, in shifting identities, in healing, growth, or the simple act of starting over. We are interested in images that capture transition: what ends, what lingers, and what emerges.
Submissions may interpret renewal literally or metaphorically. We welcome work that reflects cycles, resilience, transformation, and hope — as well as the uncertainty that often accompanies new beginnings.
All photographic approaches are encouraged, including documentary, conceptual, and experimental.
We encourage poetic, personal, and experimental interpretations of what it means to begin again.
We invite photographers, artists, and image-makers to submit work for our upcoming exhibition celebrating iPhone and mobile phone photography. This call seeks compelling images created exclusively with smartphones—no DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, or traditional cameras.
We’re looking for photographs that showcase the unique strengths of mobile devices: spontaneity, intimacy, experimentation, and everyday creativity. All genres are welcome, including portraiture, street, documentary, abstract, landscape, and conceptual work.
We’re excited to invite photographers from around the world to submit photographic work for an upcoming exhibition exploring the theme: "Self-Portrait".
Who are you when you turn the camera on yourself?
This open call invites photographers and lens-based artists to explore the art of self-representation. From traditional portraiture to conceptual explorations of identity, memory, and presence, Self-Portraits seeks to uncover the many ways we construct, disguise, and discover ourselves through the photographic image.
We welcome a wide range of interpretations — from intimate personal studies to performative or experimental works that challenge the boundaries of self-portraiture. Submissions may include digital, analog, mixed media, or alternative photographic processes.
We invite photographers from all backgrounds and levels to submit work for an upcoming exhibition centered around the theme: "Landscape".
This call seeks to explore the diverse interpretations of landscapes - from vast natural vistas and remote terrains to urban environments and altered ecosystems.
We welcome entries that approach the theme traditionally or challange the conventional definitions of landscape photography. Whether your work captures the grandeur of nature, the subtlety of human impact, or the complexity of place and space, we want to see how you frame the world around you.
All film, digital, alternative processes, or hybrid works that engage with the idea of Landscape photography are acceptable.
