Decode Gallery invites photographers from around the world to participate in its Collection 2026 exhibition, an open call that celebrates photographic excellence without thematic restrictions. There is no prescribed subject matter, concept, or genre—only the opportunity to present your strongest and most compelling work. Whether your images explore portraiture, landscape, documentary, street photography, fine art, abstraction, or experimental approaches, this exhibition seeks to showcase the diversity and creativity of contemporary photography.

The Collection 2026 exhibition is designed to bring together a wide range of artistic voices and visual perspectives. Photographers are encouraged to submit images that best represent their personal style, technical skill, and creative vision. By removing thematic limitations, the exhibition creates space for unexpected connections and diverse interpretations, resulting in a dynamic presentation of contemporary photographic practice.

A minimum of 26 photographs will be selected by the juror for inclusion in the exhibition at Decode Gallery. To ensure a professional and consistent presentation, all accepted works will be printed by the gallery at no additional cost to the photographer. Prints are produced using a professional Epson printing system and Epson Ultra Premium Luster paper, known for its exceptional color accuracy, detail, and archival quality.

Each selected photograph will be professionally framed using museum-quality 22" x 22" white frames. The gallery maintains a variety of pre-cut archival mats to accommodate different image proportions and dimensions, allowing each work to be displayed in its most effective format. Accepted digital files will be carefully resized without cropping to ensure optimal presentation while preserving the integrity of the original composition.

Following the exhibition, prints will be archived by the gallery for a period of two years. Photographers retain full copyright and ownership of their images at all times. Should a collector express interest in purchasing an exhibited print, the photographer will be contacted immediately. Works may be offered for sale at the photographer's discretion, with sales proceeds divided equally between the artist and the gallery. This arrangement provides both exposure and potential commercial opportunities while ensuring that photographers maintain complete control over their creative work.
